Upwellings occur when winds push surface water away from the coast, allowing deeper, nutrient-rich waters to rise and replace the displaced water. This typically happens along Coastlines, where surface water is moved by winds or ocean currents. Upwellings are important for providing nutrients for marine life and can occur seasonally or due to specific oceanographic conditions.
Yes. Tornadoes do not occur in Antarctica and likely do no occur in parts of the Arctic and in areas of extreme desert. There are many other regions that are cold or arid that tornadoes occur, but are extremely rare.
Thunder, lightning, wind, and rain occur in the Earth's atmosphere.
Tornadoes occur in the lower atmosphere, specifically in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of the atmosphere where weather events typically occur. Hurricanes occur slightly higher up in the troposphere, usually in the lower part of the troposphere where the conditions are conducive for their formation.
Tornadoes are least likely to occur at night, typically between 10 PM and 6 AM. This is because the atmosphere is more stable during nighttime hours, reducing the conditions necessary for tornado formation.
Deposition can occur through the process of erosion, where sediment is deposited by wind, water, or ice. It can also occur through chemical processes, when minerals precipitate out of solution and accumulate on surfaces.

Upwellings
Not per-Se, but plates pulling apart AND plates being overridden do cause magma upwellings.
False. Hotspot volcanoes form above mantle plumes, which are localized upwellings of hot mantle material. Subduction zone volcanoes form due to the subduction of one tectonic plate beneath another, resulting in magma generation due to the melting of the subducted plate.
Upwellings bring nutrients to the surface, resulting in increased primary productivity and subsequently more fish and marine life. This can boost fish populations and support larger fisheries, benefiting the fishing industry of nations located near upwelling zones by providing a rich source of fish to catch. Additionally, upwelling areas tend to be highly productive and attract a diverse range of fish species, leading to increased fishing opportunities.
Mantle plumes. These are hot upwellings of magma from the Earth's mantle that can cause volcanic activity on the surface, such as hotspot volcanoes like those in Hawaii.
