  • To measure wind speed at high altitudes.
  • To track animal migrations in the atmosphere.
What does the term 'precipitation' refer to?
  • Precipitation is a type of cloud formation in the sky.
  • Precipitation is the process of water being absorbed by plants.
  • Precipitation is water that falls from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface.
  • Precipitation refers to the evaporation of water from the ground.
How do meteorologists use satellite imagery?
  • Meteorologists use satellite imagery to predict earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
  • Meteorologists use satellite imagery to monitor weather patterns and track storms.
  • Meteorologists use satellite imagery to assess air quality and pollution levels.
  • Meteorologists use satellite imagery to analyze ocean currents and marine life.
What is the meaning of 'wind chill' and how is it calculated?
  • Wind chill is the perceived decrease in temperature felt by the body due to the flow of air. It is calculated using a formula that combines wind speed and air temperature.
  • It is calculated by averaging the temperature over a week.
  • Wind chill refers to the increase in temperature due to humidity.
  • Wind chill is the actual temperature measured by a thermometer.
