What's the correct order of air pressure division on earth from Equator to North/South Pole

1. H-L-H-L
2. L-L-H-H
3. L-H-H-L
4. L-H-L-H

Air is rising. There is ..1.. air pressure. This means it will probably be ..2..

1. 1 = low 2 = sunny
2. 1 = low 2 = rainy
3. 1 = high 2 = sunny
4. 1 = high 2 = rainy

The air in low pressure areas.....

1. Is rising up (in to the atmosphere)
2. Is comming down from the atmosphere on the surface of the earth
3. Does nothing actually, is just chilling on the same hight/place

You can use a barometer as a tool to help predict the weather.
What is the weather probably going to be like if, on a single day, the air pressure:

falls from 1010 to 980 hPa?

1. Calm winds and lots of rain
2. Calm winds and sunny
3. Changeable weather and lots of rain
4. Changeable weather and lots of rain

You can use a barometer as a tool to help predict the weather.
What is the weather probably going to be like if, on a single day, the air pressure:

rises from 1010 to 1025 hPa?

1. Calm winds and lots of rain
2. Calm winds and sunny
3. Changeable weather and lots of rain
4. Changeble weather and lots of rain

If there is a large difference in air pressure, you'll experience:

1. high temperatures
2. low temperatures
3. strong winds
4. calm weather

How does the Gulf stream affect the climate?

“If we continue to drive global warming, the Gulf Stream System will weaken further – by 34 to 45 percent by 2100 according to the latest generation of climate models,“ concludes Rahmstorf. “This could bring us dangerously close to the tipping point at which the flow becomes unstable.”

Climate change

What is a greenhouse gas?

1. Carbon dioxide
2. Methane
3. Water vapour
4. CFK
