Explanation:

Effects of Wind

on forecasted temperatures

At night, the earth's surface cools by radiating heat off to space. The strongest cooling takes place right near the surface while temperatures at roughly 3000 feet are actually warmer than those at the surface. On a windy night, some of the warmer air aloft is mixed down towards the surface. This occurs because the winds are faster aloft than at the surface.

To visualize this, place one hand over the other about six inches apart. The bottom hand represents the air near the surface and the top hand represents the warmer wind higher up. Move the bottom hand slowly and the upper hand faster (to indicate the faster winds aloft). The faster air above and slower air below causes the air to overturn or spin (as in the picture below). This overturning motion is how warmer air from above is transported downward on windy nights.

Deltas are built up by<br> a. deposition.<br> b. leaching.<br> c. abrasion.<br> d. erosion.
lesya692 [45]

The correct answer is - a. deposition.

The deltas are formed at the mouths of the rivers right before they enter a large water body, like ocean, sea, or lake. The rivers carry lot of material with them, and they do not have any problem carrying it while they are moving faster, but when they are slowing down significantly, they lose the force required to carry the material, so the material starts to deposit on the river banks. As the material deposits, it makes it hard for all of the river's water to pass through its river bed that is becoming partially blocked, so the river starts to branch out, and seen from above it takes a triangular shape if the peripheries are outlined, or as a tree that is branching out.

What causes the temperature to increase with height through the stratosphere and decrease with height through the mesosphere
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The temperature begins to increase with altitude in the stratosphere. This warming is caused by a form of oxygen called ozone (O3) absorbing ultraviolet radiation from the sun.The overlying mesosphere does not absorb solar radiation, so the temperature decreases with altitude.
