Oceans and land absorb heat in different ways. As the land's surface becomes warmer, the air is expanded and an area of low pressure is developed. The ocean remains at a lower temperature than the land, and the air retains a higher pressure. This decreases the air's ability to hold water, causing heavy precipitation.]]> 2017-03-24 18:33:23 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholasdaly2017/yopwdtwwk7sd/wish/162501542 https://padlet.com/nicholasdaly2017/yopwdtwwk7sd/wish/166783520 2017-04-18 15:07:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholasdaly2017/yopwdtwwk7sd/wish/166783520
