When air moves, its thermal energy moves separately from the moving air (AAAS Project 2061, n.d.).

Items that test for misconception CLM037 in this project (ASPECt) and key idea (Temperature variations in fluids su…)
Item ID Number	Item Description	How Often the Misconception was Chosen	Select This Item for My Item Bank
RG154002	When warmer air enters a room with cooler air, both the warmer air and thermal energy rise because thermal energy is associated with the movement of the molecules of the air.	55%
RG156002	Air can move from one place to another, and its thermal energy moves with it.	27%
