sent: we use it to mesure the water in the air

ex: humity

ex: water

def: the temperature at which dew forms and is a measure of atmospheric moisture. It is the temperature to which air must be cooled at constant pressure and water content to reach saturation.

sent: the amount of water that the air can hold

ex: humity

ex: water 

def: When the air is saturated with water vapour (at its dew point), the moist adiabatic lapse rate(MALR) or saturated adiabatic lapse rate(SALR) applies. This lapse rate varies strongly with temperature.

sent: the rate of dew point

ex: dew point

def:a visible mass of condensed water vapor floating in the atmosphere, typically high above the ground

sent: a water vapor in the sky

ex: strato

def: Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the weight of air in the atmosphere of Earth (or that of another planet). In most circumstancesatmospheric pressure is closely approximated by the hydrostaticpressure caused by the weight of air above the measurement point.

sent: the air pressure is everywhere and helps us in many ways

ex: oxogen

ex: nitrogen

def:an instrument measuring atmospheric pressure, used especially in forecasting the weather and determining altitude.

sent: we use this of the air pressure in the air

ex: air pressure

ex: pressure 

def: he perceptible natural movement of the air, especially in the form of a current of air blowing from a particular direction.

sent: the wind it in everywhere

ex: enegry

ex: help us

def:the perceptible natural movement of the air, especially in the form of a current of air blowing from a particular direction:

sent:we use wind energy to power some of our houses

ex: hurricanes

tornadoes

def:a line on a map connecting points having the same atmospheric pressure at a given time or on average over a given period

sent:each of two or more isotopes of different elements, with the same atomic weight

ex: heat maps

atomic mass

def:Wind is the product of pressure gradients established between high and low pressure systems.  These systems are constantly moving and changing.  This constant movement of the pressure systems is due to the Coriolis effect.  The Coriolis effect describes the apparent deflection (curving) of an object traveling in a straight line.

sent: a lot of things can affect the wind like temp

Ex: temp and wether

def:Origin of condensation nucleus

sent:this process is called condensation. In the atmosphere, this surface presents itself as tin

ex: water droplets

snow

def:a system of winds rotating inward to an area of low atmospheric pressure, with a counterclockwise (northern hemisphere) or clockwise (southern hemisphere) circulation; a depression.

sent: it look like a hurrican but they are differnt

ex: wether, stomers

def:a weather system with high atmospheric pressure at its center, around which air slowly circulates in a clockwise (northern hemisphere) or counterclockwise (southern hemisphere) direction. Anticyclones are associated with calm, fine weather.

sent: this is the oposite of the cyclone

ex: rains, storms

def:A cold front is defined as the leading edge of a cooler mass of air, replacing at ground level a warmer mass of air, which lies within a fairly sharp surface trough of low pressure. It forms in the wake of an extratropical cyclone, at the leading edge of its cold air advection

sent:this brings in stormy weather

ex: stromy, cold

def:

sent:this brings in light warther and warm

ex: warm, light rain

def:A stationary front is a pair of air masses, neither of which is strong enough to replace the other. On a weather map, this is shown by an inter-playing series of blue spikes pointing one direction and red domes pointing the other

sent:this front stays still

ex:puple

have circles and triangles

def:An occluded front is formed during the process of cyclogenesis when a cold front overtakes a warm front. When this occurs, the warm air is separated (occluded) from the cyclone center at the Earth's surface

sent:this one over comes the warm front

ex: warm front cold front

def:There are many different factors that affect climate around the world. It is the varying influence of these factors that lead to different parts of the Earth experiencing differing climates. The most important natural factors
