Antarctic- Guess the Climate
•
1 like•667 views
Antarctica is so cold for several reasons: it is located at the bottom of the globe so the sun's rays hit it at an angle and heat a larger surface area less; the atmosphere is thicker so the sun's rays lose energy penetrating it; and the continent is covered in ice which reflects heat in an effect called albedo. Additionally, Antarctica's higher elevation and more interior locations experience lower temperatures due to continentality where land cools quicker than sea in winter.

Presentation4
The document describes how cold weather can cause ice to form everywhere, even on cars, forcing people to bundle up as they hope for summer. However, summer brings harsh heat that sometimes leads to fires. When the fires are extinguished, a kind of beauty can be found in the summer sun reflecting off the shadows of what was lost to the flames.
Weather vocabulary
This document provides a basic weather vocabulary list for year 3 students, including cloud, sun, hot, cold, rain, rainbow, storm, hail, frost, wind, raincoat, and umbrella.
Season
The document discusses the causes of seasons and factors that determine temperatures in different places. It states that the Earth's axial tilt and yearly revolution around the sun cause the seasons. Several factors influence temperatures, including sunlight duration, the sun's angle above the horizon, and the Earth's distance from the sun. Places near the equator have less temperature variation and defined seasons. Higher latitudes experience more extreme seasonal changes with warm summers and cold winters due to variable sun exposure. Within seasons, temperatures fluctuate based on accumulated heat gains and losses.
Winter Solstice
The winter solstice marks the shortest day and longest night of the year, occurring around December 21st. It happens because the Earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees, resulting in half the planet receiving more sunlight at different times. After the winter solstice, the Earth begins tilting back towards the sun, signaling the start of longer days leading up to summer.
Science 1.7 Seasons
This document summarizes the key characteristics of each season and how each season affects weather, plants, and animals. For each season, weather patterns such as temperature and precipitation are described. Changes in plants are outlined, such as budding in spring and shedding leaves in fall. Animal adaptations for each season are also detailed, such as hibernation in winter and shedding fur in summer. The document is intended to teach first grade students about earth patterns and cycles related to the changing seasons.
Geo presentation
Warm air rises as it meets cold air at a front, forming cirrus clouds. As the warm air cools further, stratus clouds develop. The clouds fill with water vapor and eventually produce rain as the moisture condenses out of the sky.
Weather revision
As a depression approaches and passes, the weather goes through a sequence of changes. Winds become southwesterly and cloud cover increases as the warm front approaches, bringing light rain. As the warm front passes, rain becomes persistent while temperatures and westerly winds increase. In the warm sector, rain eases but showers can occur with strong winds. As the cold front passes, heavy rain and a sudden drop in temperature occurs as winds turn northwesterly. After the cold front, winds ease and turn northerly with sunny weather and possible showers. An anticyclone brings settled, dry conditions without clouds or rain due to sinking air holding more moisture.
7th Grade Chapter 5 Lesson 4
Wind is caused by differences in air temperature across the Earth's surface. Heat from the sun is absorbed differently by various surfaces, with darker surfaces absorbing more. This causes uneven heating of land and water. There are three key differences in how land and water heat up: 1) Water is transparent while land is solid, 2) Land is solid while water can flow and circulate, 3) Water has a higher heat capacity than land and absorbs heat more slowly. These differences impact wind patterns and weather.

2. Currently, most higher education institutions use commercial or open source VLE systems on an institution-wide basis to support growing student enrollment numbers.
3. Moving forward, VLEs may incorporate more open web technologies and place greater emphasis on user participation, personalization, social features, and treating students as co-creators through a "VLE 2.0" approach.
Antartica by judy flores
Antarctica is the coldest, windiest, highest, driest, and iciest continent on Earth. It has an average elevation of over 8,000 feet and receives less than 2 inches of precipitation per year. Antarctica is surrounded by ocean, which prevents the moderating effect of water and contributes to its extremely cold temperatures, with recorded lows of -129°F. Several nations operate research stations staffed by scientists year-round to study the environment, climate, and wildlife such as penguins and whales. Tourists can visit Antarctica by ship for short trips during the summer.
Intro to Antarctica
This document provides an introduction to Antarctica and the Antarctic region. It explains that Antarctica refers to the continent, while Antarctic refers to the entire southern polar region including surrounding oceans. Most of Antarctica is covered by over 2 km of snow and ice, and large glaciers flow toward the coast, forming ice shelves over the ocean. The polar regions are colder than other areas due to the low angle of incoming sunlight, which provides less energy. Additionally, the polar night during winters leads to long periods without any sunlight. Compared to the Arctic, Antarctica experiences colder average temperatures because it is surrounded by cold ocean currents that do not mix with warmer waters, its higher average elevation, and its position as a continental landmass surrounded by ocean
Yoganant 2016
This document discusses the concept of surrender in yoga and spirituality. It begins by explaining how surrender is often seen negatively in modern culture as giving up or losing control, but in yoga it means surrendering the ego to something greater.
It then explains Patanjali's yoga sutra that recommends the practice of ishvara pranidhana, or completely surrendering the individual ego identity to God or a higher power. This allows one to move beyond feelings of separateness and attain yoga, or union with the divine.
Surrendering the ego through practices like ishvara pranidhana can help cure the afflictions of the mind and redirect energy towards on

WJEC GCSE Geography Quick Tips Paper 2
This document provides information about coastal landforms, processes of erosion, and coastal management strategies. It begins with definitions of various erosional processes like corrasion, solution, and longshore drift. It then provides diagrams and explanations of how different coastal landforms like wave-cut platforms, stacks, and spits are formed through erosional processes. The document also discusses hard and soft engineering techniques used for coastal management, providing examples like sea walls, beach nourishment, and managed retreat. It analyzes case studies of coastal management in areas like Holderness Coast in the UK. Finally, it poses exam questions related to coastal landforms, processes, and managing development in coastal regions.
Two (hundred) heads are better than one: the power of collaboration.
The document appears to be a collection of disjointed notes and questions from a teacher regarding lesson planning and professional development. It includes questions about choosing a case study, understanding concepts, and approaches to use in teaching. There are also notes about opening a restaurant, escaping to different locations, and joining a shoe shiner. Links are provided to resources on teaching practices, special interest groups, and ideas from a Twitter network. The teacher signs off by asking how Tesco products could supplement learning.

2010 eruption of Eyjafjallajökull revisited
Primary impacts of volcanic eruptions include pyroclastic flows, lava bombs, and lahars. Secondary impacts include volcanic ash and gases released into the atmosphere which can disrupt global air travel and potentially cause cooling of the climate.
HIV in Botswana
Botswana is a landlocked country located in Southern Africa. It has a relatively young population structure with high birth rates and declining death rates leading to rapid population growth. This population growth is straining resources and creating challenges for development in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Polish Migration to the UK
Polish migration to the UK increased after Poland joined the EU in 2004 due to push factors like high unemployment in Poland and pull factors like job opportunities for unskilled workers in the UK. While many Polish migrants were young people attracted by economic opportunities, around half have returned home since due to factors like the economic crisis reducing UK jobs while Poland's economy grew, the falling value of the pound, and higher wages and stable costs now in Poland. Some Polish migrants also remained for major UK construction projects but ultimately missed home.
World Population Introduction
The document defines key terms related to population growth and density, including birth rate, death rate, emigration, and immigration. It notes that birth rate minus death rate equals natural increase and that population growth is influenced by both natural increase and net migration. Higher fertility rates and more children per family generally contribute to increased population growth.
Tectonic Features in the UK
Lava plateaus are formed by repeated outpourings of lava from narrow openings, building up layers over time. Volcanic plugs occur when magma hardens within a vent, leaving resistant rock after surrounding rock erodes. Basalt columns form as basalt lava cools and contracts, creating hexagonal columns through horizontal cracking as contraction is resisted.
Rocks and Rock Cycle
The document describes the three main types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic - and provides details about their characteristics, formation processes, and common uses. Igneous rocks such as basalt form from cooling magma. Sedimentary rocks like sandstone are formed through deposition and cementation of sediments. Metamorphic rocks like slate form from existing rocks undergoing changes due to heat and pressure.
Tectonic Hands
The document discusses four types of tectonic plates: collision plates, destructive plates, constructive plates, and conservative plates. It lists these four plate types in different orders, but always includes all four types in the listings.
Fair Trade- Chocolate
Fair Trade benefits farmers by providing a stable price for products that covers the costs of production. It also provides a social premium of 20% for community investments. Consumers know they are purchasing ethical products from democratically run cooperatives. However, Fair Trade has limitations as a niche market with limited impact, and does not encourage secondary processing or solve all unfair trading practices issues.
Introduction to Aid
International aid refers to the transfer of money, equipment, and personnel from wealthy nations to developing countries to assist with development efforts. The document discusses different types of international aid such as emergency aid provided during disasters and development aid aimed at long-term improvement of living standards. It also outlines some of the largest recipients of aid based on the percentage of GDP received and their human development index scores. Major sources of funding include governments through contributions based on GNP, private donations to non-governmental organizations, and multilateral organizations like the World Bank that pool funding from multiple nations.
Appropriate Technology- Solar Cookers
The document summarizes a sustainable project in Kenya that uses appropriate technology to improve the economy, environment and society. The project is run by Solar Cookers International and involves teaching local communities to make solar cookers out of inexpensive, locally sourced materials like aluminum and plastic bags. These solar cookers help reduce reliance on wood for fuel by providing an alternative for cooking, and can also sterilize water. The project aims to benefit individuals and communities with technology that is affordable and doesn't harm the environment.
Introduction to Trade
International trade involves the exchange of goods between countries through imports and exports. Imports are goods that a country purchases from another country, while exports are goods that a country sells to another country. A country's trade balance is the difference between its exports and imports. When exports are greater than imports, the country has a trade surplus; when imports are greater, it has a trade deficit. Countries with a trade surplus have advantages like being able to invest in infrastructure and industry. Trade can also occur freely without restrictions through free trade, or countries can protect domestic industries through import taxes, quotas and subsidies in a policy of protectionism.
Coca Cola - Introduction to MNC
Globalization both helps and hinders development through multinational companies operating in multiple countries. Coca-Cola operates in over 300 countries and sells over 400 brands, employing 71,000 people worldwide. Multinationals benefit from lower labor, transportation, and production costs in less developed countries. However, they are also criticized for relaxing regulations regarding workers' rights and the environment. One case study examines how Coca-Cola invests in local communities through jobs, suppliers, and tax revenues, generating a positive economic impact.
Camfed- Zambia
The document discusses strategies to promote female education in Zambia, an organization working to reduce development gaps. It outlines Camfed's campaign for female education in Zambia, which supports girls in primary, secondary, and tertiary education with fees, uniforms, and mentors. It also provides business training and grants or loans for female-owned startups, training alumni to mentor others. This has supported over 190,000 children in schools, trained over 1,400 female teachers in rural areas, and provided over 1,400 grants and 300 loans to women to start businesses.
Introduction to development indicators
The document discusses different indicators used to measure and compare levels of development between countries. It outlines social indicators related to quality of life and economic indicators related to wealth. Examples of specific indicators provided include GNP per capita, literacy rates, infant mortality rates, and percentage of population employed in farming. The document also compares indicator data between the UK and Bangladesh to illustrate differences between more and less economically developed countries.

This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Antarctic- Guess the Climate
- 1. Guess the terminology! You have until the end of the two minutes before the answers are revealed. Why is Antarctica so cold? Antarctica is at the base of the globe, because the Earth is titled on its axes, when the suns rays hit the Earth, it covers a larger surface area. Therefore heating is less. Also the atmosphere that the suns rays have to penetrate is thicker, therefore more energy is lost or reflected back into space. Antarctica is predominately ice, heat is reflected off the ice, this is called the Albedo Effect. Antarctica is also a relatively high continent, due to its elevation, temperatures are lower. Places in the interior of Antarctica are also very cold, this is because land cools quicker than sea during the winter, we called this continentality. 1 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 2
