what is the principal element of weather and climate?
Answers
Explanation:
There are many elements that make up both the weather and the climate of a geographical location. The most significant of these elements are temperature, atmospheric pressure, wind, solar irradiance, humidity, precipitation, and topography.
Answer:
Caveat: Not My Field. But I think the fundamental variables are air temperature, air pressure, and air humidity. Spatial variations in these produce regions of high and low pressure, winds, and precipitation. Winds are one cause for variations in time.
To go further back, the earth is heated by the sun and cooled by emission of infra red (IR) radiation. The balance produces our temperature. Local variations produce local temperature variations. Warming variations in time, due to changes in the earth’s orientation with respect to the sun, produce seasons. Temperature plus liquid water produces evaporation and humidity.
Changes in snow-ice cover and cloudiness change the earth’s reflectivity and change how much the earth is warmed by the sun. Changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration change how much the earth is cooled by IR emission.
