Question

(GIVING BRAINLYIST) How does temperature and precipitation change as you increase in elevation?

Answer 1

Answer:

Temperature gets cooler and precipitation increases.

Explanation:

As average temperatures at the Earth's surface rise, more evaporation occurs, which, in turn, increases overall precipitation. … In addition, higher temperatures lead to more evaporation, so increased precipitation will not necessarily increase the amount of water available for drinking, irrigation, and industry

Higher elevations cause temperatures to drop because the higher up in the atmosphere you go, the colder it gets due to air pressure, in turn causing precipitation to freeze, creating snow. Lower elevations are a lot warmer because the air pressure is not as pressurized causing the temperature to be warmer

Answer 2

Answer:

Temperature gets colder and precipitation decreases

Explanation:

You move farther away from the very hot core of the earth, and your going above the clouds so no rain
