Clues

  • A rise in sea level caused by high winds pushing on the oceans surface from low pressure weather systems (5, 5)
  • All the conditions that surround any living organism (11)
  • An area of high pressure caused by sinking air that brings clear skies and dry conditions (11)
  • An area of low pressure that brings cloud, wind and rain (11)
  • How far a place is from a major body of water (8, 4, 3, 3)
  • The most common wind direction of a place (10, 5)
  • The process by which dry or arid environments become more like a desert (15)
  • The sun heats the ground which in turn heats the air above it which rises and cools, condenses and forms clouds resulting in rain (12, 8)
  • Warm, moist air from the mountains is forced to rise which then cools, condenses, forms clouds and rains (6, 8)
  • When a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet, the warm air is forced to rise as it is less dense then CCC=P (7, 8)
