Download Warm Front The difference in altitude represented by

The process by which soil and rock are
removed from the Earth's surface by wind or
water flow, and then transported and
deposited in other locations.
The geological process by which sediments,
soil, and rocks are added to a landform or
land mass by wind, ice, and water, as well as
sediment flowing via gravity.
The difference in altitude represented
by the space between two contour
lines on a map.
This was a supercontinent that existed
during the late Paleozoic and early
Mesozoic eras, forming approximately
300 million years ago.
A German scientist most remembered for
advancing the theory of continental drift in
1912, which hypothesized that the continents
were slowly drifting around the Earth.
Created by plate tectonics which include
volcanoes, trenches, ocean ridges,
mountains, rivers, lakes, geologic formations,
faults, and aquifers.
The leading edge of a cooler mass of air, replacing

within a fairly sharp surface trough of low

Defined as the transition zone where a warm air mass
is replacing a cold air mass, generally move from
southwest to northeast and contains warm, moist air.

Are caused by the very hot material rising,
then cooling, sinking again and then heating,
rising and repeating the cycle over and over.
They occur in plate tectonics, ocean currents
and the wind.

Determine wind and weather patterns.
High pressure is associated with light
winds and clear skies; low pressure
cloudy skies and variable winds.
