The statement, “An arid or
semi-arid climate occurs where precipitation is greater than potential evaporation”,
is false. A semi-arid climate occurs where the recipitation is below the
potential evaporation. Regions that experiences arid climate receives less than
10 inches of rainfall in an entire year.

Explanation:
<span>A climate cycle in the Pacific Ocean with a global impact on weather patterns is called El Nino. The cycle begins when warm water in the western tropical Pacific Ocean and shifts eastward along the equator toward the coast of South America.
La Nina has cooler temperatures, not warmer ones. Temperature inversion is just a simple change of temperature. And global warming doesn't fit here as it is not a type of current.</span>
<span>The
higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure. Lower pressure
in turn causes water to evaporate more quickly, and water actually
boils at a lower temperature. The percentage of oxygen in the air at two
miles (3.2 km.) is the same as at sea level (21%). However, the air
pressure is 30% lower at the higher altitude due to the fact that the
atmosphere is less dense--that is, the air molecules are farther apart.
The important effect of this decrease in pressure is this: in a given
volume of air, there are fewer molecules present. This is really just
another way of saying that the pressure is lower. This is called Boyle's
law.</span>
