Monsoon of South-East Asia by https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi By Justin Baarbé en-us 2017-04-08 20:43:13 UTC 2017-04-09 02:37:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Monsoons justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165524534 Monsoons refer to a weather pattern where wind reverses in direction from cold to warm air. After the reversal the the areas affected change seasons. These seasons are often referred to as dry and rainy season. Monsoons that cause a high air pressure, lower temperature, and the decrease in precipitation are called the winter monsoon. On the other hand, monsoons with low air pressure, and a increase in precipitation, is called the summer monsoon. Respectively, the winter monsoon is also referred to as the dry season, while the summer monsoon is referred to as the rainy season.]]> 2017-04-08 21:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165524534 The science behind Monsoons justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165530912  During the winter monsoon solar radiation is weak and causes the wind to change directions. This change in the wind causes the ocean to be at low pressure while the land is at high pressure. In turn thsi causes there to be precipitation over the ocean, while at the same time there is little precipitation on land. During the summer monsoon solar radiation is strong which changes the wind direction towards the ocean. This change makes the land have a low pressure and the ocean to have a high pressure, so there will be more precipitation on land. ]]> 2017-04-09 01:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165530912 Southeast Asia justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531019 Southeast Asia is not the only location where monsoons happen, but it is the biggest example of monsoons. The countries that are affected are India, Thailand, Burma, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Philippines to name a few. ]]> 2017-04-09 02:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531019 justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531396 2017-04-09 02:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531396 justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531416 2017-04-09 02:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531416 justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531469 2017-04-09 02:23:28 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531469 justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531496 2017-04-09 02:25:23 UTC https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531496 References justin_baarbe https://padlet.com/justin_baarbe/tdor3h76saxi/wish/165531607 S.
