Factors that Influence Climate Change by https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c By Emilia, Charlette, Brianna and Monique en-us 2017-02-19 23:25:04 UTC 2023-01-19 06:16:08 UTC hello@padlet.com Wind https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834374 The wind affect the weather/climate received in an area. Contrasts in temp create winds. If the hot air rises, cooler air flow underneath. Local winds are created by usual fluctuations in temp from day to night, though global winds have a more direct result on the climate. Due to the sun being more intense at the equator, the patterns of the global winds called prevailing winds form. Hotter air at the equator rise and spreads towards the poles. ]]> 2017-02-19 23:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834374 Orientation of the Earth~ charlette_polmanteer https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834418 The orientation of the Earth is effected by Climate Change through the tilt in the axis. The Earth goes through four seasons; Winter, Autumn, Spring and Summer which all display different attributes in weather. The equator line on the Earth is the point that is hit the most by the Sun's Radiation and with Climate Change increasing the temperature is rising in these areas nearing the equator. With the Greenhouse Gas Effect the Earth is heating particularly in the Equator points as the temperature continuously rises causing major heat waves in these areas.]]> 2017-02-19 23:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834418 Land forms/topography https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834419 Land forms affect the weather/climate by altering the wind a rate of evaporation. This causes changes in the temperature, humidity and rainfall of a region. When a storm front hits a mountain or other land forms, rain clouds are sometimes get blocked. The topography of an area can greatly influence our climate. Mountain ranges are natural barricades to air movement.]]> 2017-02-19 23:30:53 UTC https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834419 Ocean Currents~ charlette_polmanteer https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834469 The Ocean Currents are being effected by climate change due to the easy disruption to the Conveyor Belt. The Conveyor Belt is in constant motion system in deep-water driven by temperature.  With change to the temperature the Conveyor Belt is slowing which can lead to a drastic change in temperature for places like Europe and is effecting the the North Atlantic with increasing rainfall and inability  to produce more sea ice as the melting of Glaciers and Sea Ice continues.

With 71% of the world being oceans and the currents changing more water is being absorbed with twice as much sun radiation being drawn from the ocean and sea currents. ]]> 2017-02-19 23:31:37 UTC https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834469 HOW OCEAN INFLUENCES CLIMATE: https://padlet.com/charlette_polmanteer/6kg1uo8nhf4c/wish/154834671 Ocean currents are much like a conveyer belt, transferring warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Currents control global climate, helping to respond the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.

The local surface of the Earth will be either land or water surface
How does elevation effect climate?
Elevation impacts on temperatures such as regions with higher elevations that are colder. South Asia has a humid climate due to its high elevation

The Energy from the Sun warms the curved surface of the Earth. The curve of the surface creates different climate zones. Energy from the sun also powers earth water's cycle and creates whether patterns. The seasons are caused as the Earth tilted axis, travels in a loop around the Sun each year. Summer happens when the hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun, and winter happens when the hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun.

There are many different types of air pollution. Some types cause global warming to speed up. Others cause global warming to slow down by creating a temporary cooling effect.
