This document contains a quiz about weather and climate concepts. It includes multiple choice and true/false questions about how factors like latitude, altitude, proximity to large bodies of water and topography influence climate. Key ideas covered are that temperature generally decreases with increased altitude or latitude from the equator, while topographic features like mountains can create rain shadows on their leeward sides with drier conditions.
Meteorologists study weather and use weather data to predict conditions. Weather is the current atmospheric conditions of an area, including factors like temperature, wind, and precipitation. Climate is the average weather of a region over a long period of time. Weather instruments and satellites provide accurate weather information that helps meteorologists make forecasts to inform public planning.
The document discusses factors that affect climate, including latitude. It differentiates between weather, which describes short-term atmospheric conditions, and climate, which refers to long-term patterns. An activity asks students to identify statements as referring to weather or climate. Examples show weather in Manila and climate in Metro Manila. Places are classified into tropical, temperate, and polar regions based on location. Questions cover how the tilt of Earth's axis and latitude impact the amount of sunlight and heat received in different areas, affecting regional climates.
This document contains information about various climate factors and a series of assessment questions. It discusses how latitude, altitude, distance from bodies of water, air pressure systems, mountain barriers, elevation, continental location, wind belts, ocean currents, and storms can all impact the climate of a given region. Several diagrams and tables are included to illustrate these concepts. Students are asked to identify which cities would have the highest and lowest recorded temperatures based on their locations, and to explain how ocean currents can influence climate conditions.
Meteorologists use various data sources to predict the weather, but it is difficult to always be correct due to rapidly changing atmospheric conditions. Data comes from surface weather stations, weather balloons, satellites, radars, and computer models. Air masses and fronts influence weather by interacting and creating storms. Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters and require specific atmospheric ingredients. While high and low pressure systems impact weather, small changes in data can lead to different model predictions, making weather forecasting challenging.

- Climate refers to the average weather conditions in an area over a long period of time, while weather describes the short-term conditions.
- There are three main climate zones: tropical near the equator, temperate between the equator and poles, and polar near the North and South poles.
- Factors like a region's location, nearby air masses, proximity to bodies of water, and elevation can determine whether its climate is more tropical, temperate, or polar.
This powerful PowerPoint presentation is made by a graduating student that pushes her study even more because she believe that while doing something she loves, it can be easy for them to study and to strive even more for their studies
This lesson plan covers the formation and development of typhoons. It includes objectives, content understanding, learning resources, activities to engage students, and an assessment. Students will learn that typhoons form from warm, moist air rising over the ocean and condensing into clouds and rainfall. As more warm air rises to replace the air that formed the clouds, winds begin to circulate, potentially strengthening into a typhoon. The lesson uses videos, diagrams, and questions to help students understand the factors and step-by-step process of how typhoons form and develop.
This document provides information about the atmosphere and weather/climate concepts. It is divided into 5 sections:
1. Describes the composition of the atmosphere and its main layers, including the troposphere where weather occurs and the stratosphere containing the ozone layer.
2. Defines weather as short-term atmospheric conditions and climate as long-term patterns. Students are asked to describe the weather in their town.
3. Explains elements that influence climate - temperature, precipitation, air pressure, and wind. It describes factors affecting temperature and different climate zones.

Altitude affects climate such that higher altitude means colder temperatures. As elevation increases, atmospheric temperature decreases at a normal rate of 1°C for every 100 meters gained in elevation. Mountain climbers wear thick clothes at higher elevations because temperature decreases as altitude increases due to thinner air.
1. The document is a science module that discusses atmospheric phenomena such as breezes, monsoons, and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
2. It contains two lessons - the first discusses the behavior of heated air and surrounding air, including demonstrations that heated air rises due to lower density. The second lesson explains atmospheric phenomena.
3. Activities include comparing how fast sand and water warm up when exposed to sunlight, demonstrating rising warm air using a paper bag and candle, and showing air movement inside and outside a box with a lighted candle and smoke from a mosquito coil.

Currently, Earth is composed of seven continents surrounded by different
bodies of water. Locating a specific place would not be possible if not for Earth’s
models such as maps and globes. A map is a two-dimensional drawing which
can be used on flat surfaces and is easily carried. On the other hand, a globe is a three-dimensional representation of the spherical shape of Earth. A unique
feature of a globe is Earth’s tilt with respect to its North and South Poles. It also
represents Earth’s position relative to Sun

Earth’s atmosphere. Topics include the structure of the atmosphere, local and
global factors influencing temperature, and temperature anomalies. The modules
start with four opening topics, or vignettes, which are found in the accompanying
Google Earth file. These vignettes introduce basic concepts of the internal structure
of the Earth. Some of the vignettes have animations, videos, or short articles that
will provide another perspective or visual explanation for the topic at hand. After
reading the vignette and associated links, answer the following questions. Please

Altitude affects climate such that higher altitude means colder temperatures. As elevation increases, atmospheric temperature decreases at a normal rate of 1°C for every 100 meters gained in elevation. Mountain climbers wear thick clothes at higher elevations because temperature decreases as altitude increases due to thinner air.
1. The document is a science module that discusses atmospheric phenomena such as breezes, monsoons, and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
2. It contains two lessons - the first discusses the behavior of heated air and surrounding air, including demonstrations that heated air rises due to lower density. The second lesson explains atmospheric phenomena.
3. Activities include comparing how fast sand and water warm up when exposed to sunlight, demonstrating rising warm air using a paper bag and candle, and showing air movement inside and outside a box with a lighted candle and smoke from a mosquito coil.
