Explanation:
Temperate rainforests are characterized by mild temperatures (rarely freezing) and abundant rainfall (over 2,000 mm per year), supporting dense forests with diverse species.
Explanation:
The Polar cell is the large-scale atmospheric circulation that occurs in the polar regions. Cold, dense air sinks at the poles and flows equatorward, rising again at about 60° latitude.
Explanation:
Wind gradient is the change in wind speed with altitude. Near the surface, friction reduces wind speed; at higher altitudes, wind speed generally increases.
