Imbalances in the Atmospheric heat budget 0.0 / 5 ? GeographyWeather systemsA2/A-levelAQA Created by: Georgew298Created on: 30-03-16 12:51 How does horizontal heat transfer rectify imbalance? Winds in the jet stream carry around 80% of heat away from the tropics (20% carried by ocean currents polewards) 1 of 5 How does verticle heat transfer rectify imbalance? Energy transferred from surface by conduction, convection and latent heat transfer 2 of 5 How is latent heat released? Mainly from precipitation which heats upper atmosphere 3 of 5 - - 4 of 5 - - 5 of 5
