  1. How does a tornado form?

  2. How does humidity change in regards to temperature?

  3. Why does condensation forms on the outside of a cold water bottle?

  4. http://www.education.noaa.gov/Freshwater/Water_Cycle.html

  5. What are some of the greatest challenges associated with our water supply? EnvironSci book p.293 - 298

  6. What are some of the greatest challenges associated with our water supply? • Access to Groundwater (Aquifers are recharged by Surface water) • Transpiration (Cottonwood & Willow trees suck up and evaporate water) • Competition for Use of water supply (agriculture, drinking water, septic system) • Agriculture Nitrates & Phosphorous (from fertilizers) • Urbanization (population growth in cities draws more groundwater)

  7. Use a diagram to show the important role that Aquifers play in our water supply Where does the majority of YOUR drinking water come from?

  8. Where is the majority of the freshwater on earth found?

  9. Where is your drinkingwater?

  11. Icebergs: Freshwater or Saltwater?

  12. When WATER becomes as valuable as OIL, where would you live? And why? http://www.technologijos.lt/n/mokslas/gamta_ir_biologija/S-31667/straipsnis/Vanduo-poreikiai-ir-istekliai?l=2&p=1

  13. Where are the biggest reservoirs of freshwater on Earth?

  14. What causes precipitation to occur?

  15. Explain what happened in the bottle. • Demo 1: “Cloud in a bottle” demo (with bicycle tire pump) • Demo 2: “Cloud in a bottle” demo (match cloud seeding) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EThP6vWqRDc

  17. What process is this?

  18. What patterns can you identify? What factors do you think influences these precipitation patterns http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/precip.html

  19. Where would you place your Farm-ville? http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/precip.html

  25. Topography (terrain) Rain

  26. Rain Shadow Effect • Study the Hawaiian Island terrain maps with your group. • http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/precip.html • Then study the Avg Precipitation maps over the islands. • Q. What patterns can you identify in regards to precipitation and terrain?
