Convection

Occurs when hot air rises upward due to a decrease in density and then expands giving off heat



Convection only occurs only in liquids and gases Conection comes from a latin word which means together The currents caused by convection occur constantly in the atmosphere and change much of the weather Convection is also responsible for sea breezes on the coastlines they occur when hot air from the mainland fuses with the cold air from the ocean. Convection in the kitchen occurs when you heat water in a cooking pot and when that happens the water from at the bottom of the pot rises to the top. Examples/Radiators sea breezes and winds
