U4L5 - Climate
1.
Unit 4 Lesson
5 Climate Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
2.
Unit 4 Lesson
5 Climate Indiana Standards Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company • 8.2.1 Recognize and demonstrate how the sun’s energy drives convection in the atmosphere and in bodies of water, which results in ocean currents and weather patterns. • 8.2.2 Describe and model how water moves through the earth’s crust, atmosphere, and oceans in a cyclic way, as liquid, vapor, and solid. • 8.2.3 Describe the characteristics of ocean currents and identify their effects on weather patterns.
3.
How’s the Climate? Copyright
© Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company What determines climate? • Weather is the condition of Earth’s atmosphere at a particular time and place. • Climate describes the weather conditions in an area over a long period of time. • Climate is usually determined by temperature and precipitation. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
4.
What determines climate? •
Temperature ranges are all of the temperatures in an area from the coldest extreme to the warmest extreme, and they are used to describe climate. • Precipitation patterns over time, rather than average precipitation, are used to determine climate. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
5.
Here Comes the
Sun! Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company How is the sun’s energy related to Earth’s climate? • Climate is directly related to the amount of energy from the sun, or solar energy, that an area receives. • The amount of solar energy depends on latitude. • Latitude is a location’s angular distance in degrees north or south from the equator. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
6.
How is the
sun’s energy related to Earth’s climate? • Solar energy powers the water cycle and winds, which affect the temperature, precipitation, and other factors that determine climate. • As latitude increases, the angle of the sun’s rays becomes greater. This reduces temperatures. • Locations near the poles are cooler than locations near the equator. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
7.
How is the
sun’s energy related to Earth’s climate? • Why is the same amount of solar energy more “spread out” at the poles than at the equator? Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
8.
How is the
sun’s energy related to Earth’s climate? • The sun powers the water cycle, which causes the evaporation, condensation, and precipitation necessary to create weather. • Uneven heating of Earth’s surface by the sun causes differences in air pressure, which creates winds. • The speed, direction, temperature, and moisture content of winds affect the climate and weather. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
9.
Latitude Isn’t Everything Copyright
© Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company How do Earth’s features affect climate? • Surface features on Earth combine to form the topography of an area. • Elevation is the height of an area above sea level. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
10.
How do Earth’s
features affect climate? • Topography influences wind patterns in an area. • A rain shadow happens when warm, moist air rises over a mountain and drops its precipitation on one side, leaving the other side dry. • Air at higher elevations rises, cools, and expands, resulting in lower temperatures. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
11.
Waterfront Property Copyright ©
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company How do large bodies of water affect climate? • Water absorbs and releases energy as heat slower than land does due to a higher specific heat. • Water can moderate temperatures of nearby land. • Locations inland from large bodies of water experience wider temperature ranges. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
12.
How do ocean
currents affect climate? • An ocean current is the movement of water in a certain direction. • Surface currents are ocean currents on the surface of the ocean. • Cold currents cool the air in coastal areas. • Warm currents warm the air in coastal areas. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
13.
How do ocean
currents affect climate? • Ocean currents cause the coast of Canada and Great Britain to have different climates. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
14.
Zoning Out Copyright ©
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company What are the three major climate zones? • Earth has three major climate zones: tropical, temperate, and polar. • These different climates result from differences in topography, winds, ocean currents, and geography. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
15.
Zoning Out Copyright ©
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company What are the three major climate zones? • Temperate climates have average temperatures below 18 °C in the coldest months and above 10 °C in the warmest months. • There are five temperate zone subclimates: marine west coast, steppe, humid continental, humid subtropical, and Mediterranean. Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
16.
What are the
three major climate zones? • The polar zone is located at latitudes greater than 66.5° in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. • Temperatures in the polar zone rarely rise above 10 °C. • The climates of the polar regions are called polar climates. Subclimates include the subarctic, tundra, and polar ice cap climates. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
17.
What are the
three major climate zones? • Tropical climates are characterized by high temperatures and are located near the equator. • Average monthly temperatures are at least 18 °C. • Subclimates include the rain forest, desert climates, and savanna climates. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate

three major climate zones? • What is the climate where you live? Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Unit 4 Lesson 5 Climate
