 1. What are the different climates of the world?

Gradual change in all the interconnected weather elements on our planets. One of five classical. Tropical dry, continental. After polar climates hot desert climates are the earth second most common climates type covering over 14.2% of the planet land area.

2. How do the season affect New Zealand weather?

Climates changes will almost certainly cause more droughts and water shortages. It will mean increased heavy rainfall in other areas and an increased risk of flooding. Coastal areas will face greater erosion and possible inundation. Over the next 30-100 years temperatures will continue to rise.

3. How do people cope with living with in cold climates?

A much more effective cultural response is extremely cold temperatures is the use of insulating cold your body has to work harder, which leads to increased endorphin production. More endorphins in your body give you a happier state of mind while at the same time stresses. The cold can help you to get more energy and boost your concentration.

4. What are thunder can lightning?

Thunder is created when lightning passes through the air. The lightning discharge heats the air rapidly and cause it to expand. The temperatures of the air in the lightning channel may reach as high as 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit 5 times hotter than the surface of the sun when the different in charge becomes too great this insulating capacity of the air breaks down and there is a rapid discharge of electricity.

5. How are the clouds made?

Clouds form when the invisibles water Vapor in the air condenses into visible water droplets or ice crystals. For this to happen the parcel of air must be saturated I.e unable to hold all the water it condense into a liquid or solid form. The process of the water changing from a gas to a liquid is called condensation and when gas changes directly into a solid. It is called disposition.

6. Why do we have rainbows?

A rainbow is caused by sunlight and atmospheric conditions. Light enters a water droplets slowing down and bending as it goes from air to denser water. The light reflects off the inside of the droplets separating into its component wavelength or colours. When light exits the droplets it makes a rainbows.

7. Why do we have rains?

Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets. When these drops grow they eventually becomes too heavy to stay suspended in the sky and fall to the ground as rain. Some droplets fall through the clouds and coalesce into raindrops on the Their way down.

8. How does snow form?

Snow is precipitation that form when water vapour freezes. It is not frozen rain but a crystallisation of ice that typically form in clouds . When temperature drop below o.c (32. F) and there is sufficient humidity in the atmosphere water vapour condenses directly into ice without going through the liquid stage.

9. Why is the sun important?

Without the sun thermal energy we wouldn’t be able to maintain or regulate our body temperatures to biologically function let alone the impacts it would  have on our planet climate sunlight is essential for plants to grow which provides animals and humans with food to consume and oxygen to breathe.

10. Why do different parts of the world have different climate?

The climate of a region depends on many factors the amount of sunlight it receives its height above sea level he shape of the land and how close it is to oceans since the equator receives more sunlight than the poles climates varies depending on it distances form  the equator.
