The Sun is responsible for heating up the Earth. The Sun heats up the Earth through radiation. Radiation can travel through space and is the driving factor for weather.]]> 2021-04-19 18:55:53 UTC https://padlet.com/amatoorah2024/krrmu22k78s8kxn4/wish/1434757943 amatoorah2024 https://padlet.com/amatoorah2024/krrmu22k78s8kxn4/wish/1434794000 Land and water have different heating properties. The properties lead to changes in the water. Much of the heat that is radiated from the sun passes through water, in turn the water is a cooler temperature than land. Land remain warmer than water because it absorbs more heat than water. This temperature difference leads to wind.]]> 2021-04-19 19:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/amatoorah2024/krrmu22k78s8kxn4/wish/1434794000 amatoorah2024 https://padlet.com/amatoorah2024/krrmu22k78s8kxn4/wish/1434807422 The heat from the sun heats up water, which evaporates, which then turns into clouds. The amount of water vapor in the air is called humidity. Humidity is often measured in percents. These percents represent the current capacity of possible humidity. Meaning x amount is the current amount and y is the total possible amount. As the heat increases the total capacity increases and the percentage usual drops. Meteorologist usually communicate humidity through the dew point. The dew point is the point where vapor vapor condenses into liquid water.]]> 2021-04-19 19:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/amatoorah2024/krrmu22k78s8kxn4/wish/1434807422
