INTRODUCTION:

A field is a region in which there is a definite physical property that can be measured at every point.
On Earth’s surface there are hundreds of different measurable quantities. Some examples of
measurable field quantities are; air pressure, temperature, elevation, rainfall amounts, and humidity.
During your course of study you will see many different types of field maps. In this lab we will be
introduced to field maps using temperature data in the classroom.
OBJECTIVE:

You will use data from temperature values for two different days in a classroom and construct
isotherms to interpret the field map.
VOCABULARY:

PROCEDURE A:

Using the Ames Stream Map below, draw in all the contour lines at 5 foot intervals on the map.
Letter A and B will be used in the discussion questions. Be sure to extend the contour lines to the
edges of the map.

PROCEDURE B:

Using the Hawaii Map, construct ocean floor depths using 1000 meter intervals on the map. Letter
A and B will be used in the discussion questions. Be sure to extend the contour lines to the edges
of the map or form complete rings. Elevations are in meters.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

1. How many dimensions are represented on a standard isoline map?
2. Other than an elevation field map, name three other types of field maps.
3. List three rules that you should follow when constructing isolines.
4. Using the Ames Stream Map, calculate the gradient between points A and B.
5. Using the Hawaii Map, calculate the gradient between points A and B.
CONCLUSION: Describe, step by step, how we can map the field of a variable quantity?
