OSCILLATIONS AND CYCLES OF AIR TEMPERATURE IN THE UNITED STATES
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2012, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The work is trying to demonstrate that in the United States there are the same cycles of air temperature (almost perfect) discovered and presented in Romania and in New Zeeland (Chatham Islands). The great extension in latitude and longitude of the United States records to these oscillations and cycles of air temperature their own characteristics. The lack of some important ranges of mountains situated in a longitudinal way permits the fast and intensive advection of polar, arctic and tropical air masses.Also the lack of some important mountain ranges arranged longitudinally allows the rapid and intense advection of the polar and arctic air masses and also of those with tropical origin. As a result, higher amplitudes of air temperature appear.
