Unequal Surface Heating/Cooling Heating by Latitude Cooling Produces: Annual Average • Wind Driven Circulation (surface currents) – Pump heat poleward • Thermohaline Circulation (deep currents) – Pump cold water equatorward
• Oceans circulate to redistribute heat, caused by the unequal heating/cooling at the surface.

It is a measure of how much water is in . Saturation the air. Unit is millibar. • Saturation Vapor Pressure - the maximum amount (qs) of water vapor that can be in the air (i.e. when humidity is 100%).
