Compute the geostrophic wind. Draw two arrows depicting the balance between the Coriolis force and pressure gradient force on the map in 2b.

Lab 8 – The Geostrophic Wind and ENSO All questions subsets are worth 5 points. 1.) Recall that the Coriolis force can be computed as where V is the wind speed (in ms-1),   is the earth’s angular rotation rate about its axis, and  is the latitude. On an isobaric map, the pressure gradient force […]

Explain in your own words how scientists have determined that a large surplus of carbon in the air is from the human activities of burning fossil fuels.

Investigate Your Fossil Fuels Consumption To aid us in our estimation, we will use the online Fossil Fuels Calculator that will convert the measurable items that we use into amounts of fossil fuel that have been consumed. This calculator is able to do this based upon some assumptions about the mix of fuel in this […]
