Study Notes
Factors Affecting Weather
-
Temperature
- Defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a place.
- Measured using a thermometer.
-
Wind
- Refers to the movement of air in the atmosphere.
- Can be quantified using an anemometer.
-
Air Pressure
- Represents the weight of air molecules pressing down on the Earth.
- Air pressure varies with altitude; it decreases as elevation increases.
- Measured using a barometer.
-
Humidity
- Indicates the amount of water vapor present in the air.
- High humidity results in a noticeably wetter atmosphere.
- Measured using a hygrometer.
-
Precipitation
- Significant weather aspect that includes all forms of water, liquid or solid, falling from the atmosphere.
- Common types are rain, snow, sleet, and hail; not elaborated in detail, but critical to weather dynamics.
