Stream Subtropical
The jet streams follow the contours of low and high pressure areas (troughs and ridges), which move like waves in the
atmosphere across the earth. How does the polar jet stream impact winter weather in the Northern Hemisphere?
A)
B)
The polar jet stream moves south brings large amounts of snow and
ice.
When the polar jet stream dips farther south and brings colder
temperatures
The polar jet stream bumps into the stronger tropical jet stream
causing lots of rain and snow.
The polar jet stream moves horizontally across the United States,
causing colder temperatures in northern states only.
D)

Topographic maps are used to measure a-composition b-movement c-elevation d-texture

Why are all maps distorted? when reading a map, why is it important to check the legend? what is the difference between longitude and latitude? identify the meridian at 0° longitude and the parallel at 0° latitude.

Why might a single rock layer exhibit different types of sedimentary rocks within it? view available hint(s) why might a single rock layer exhibit different types of sedimentary rocks within it? such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a variety of depositional environments that formed in a sequence over time. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a single depositional environment that formed over time. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced vertically represents a variety of depositional environments that formed at the same time across a broad area. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a variety of depositional environments that formed at the same time across a broad area. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced vertically represents a variety of depositional environments that formed in a sequence over time.
