This difference is mostly caused by __________ a lower carbon dioxide levels in the desert than at the coast. b ocean currents heats up air at coast & causes more moisture in air than at desert c less vegetation in the desert than at the coast. 2 Trevor lives in a city where the days are usually warm. However, yesterday was very cold. Which statement is true about the city yesterday? a The city had cold weather but a warm climate. b The city had cold weather and climate. c The city had warm weather and climate. 3 For which of the following would these data be most helpful? a understanding the climate of an area b showing the effect of weather on climate c demonstrating the difference between weather and climate 4 Scientists found evidence of past glacial activity in Massachusetts.
