Wind ________= ____________of _____from area of high ____________to area of _______pressure -caused by ___________in ___________due to __________heating of ______ -pressure—_______increase = pressure __________ Temp decrease = pressure increase __________increase = pressure_________ Wind movementair pressurelow differences pressureunequal air temp decrease Humidity increase Elevation decrease
4
Local Winds _______from _____direction, ______distances _____breeze = flow of air from ______to______ _______breeze = flow of air from _____to_____ *during _______air over _____is ________than air over______, so it_______. The ________air over the ________moves _____to take its place. *water warms _________than land (DIAGRAM—include sun and moon) Blow anyshort Sea landsea Landlandsea night sea warmer land rises cooler landin slower
5
Air Pressure Air Pressure = the _________that the air in the atmosphere ________on the__________ force exertsearth
6
FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE AIR PRESSURE ____________when the temperature of a fluid is_________, the molecules spread________, causing the fluid to be _______dense; therefore, __________air pressure. *__________temp = __________ air pressure Temperature- heated apart lesslowering increasedecrease
7
____________water vapor molecules have a ________less than that of other gas molecules in the air; so, __________water _______in the air, ________the mass of the_____, thus lowering_________ *________water vapor = __________pressure Water Vapor- mass increasing vaporlowers airpressure increase decrease
