  1. Bell Work 2/4/15 • On your desk: • I.N. • Pencil/Pen • PRIDE Cards • iPad 1. Describe the Abyssal Zone. The Abyssal zone contains very few plants and animals. This zone is located on the abyssal plain and is the largest benthic zone. 2. How do scientists use satellites to explore the ocean? Scientists use satellites to track sea surface temperatures. 3. How do scientists use sonar to explore the ocean? Scientists use sonar to map the depth of the ocean floor.

  2. Target Tests!!!TT6 and TT8

  3. The AtmosphereIt’s time to move up in the world! Update your table of contents!!

  4. What is going on here???

  5. Circle Map Human Impact on the Atmosphere

  6. HUMAN IMPACT PROJECT Don’t forget a Catchy slogan!!

  7. Human Impact on the Environment • Acid Rain- form of precipitation that is unusually acidic(low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure. • The Greenhouse effect- A process in which solar radiation is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases and isn’t able to escape back into space. This causes the atmosphere to increase in temperature over time. • Deforestation- the process where forests are cleared. Plants use sunlight, water and CO2 to produce oxygen, if there are no plants then….. • Ozone Layer- a region of Earth's stratosphere that absorbs most of the Sun's UV radiation. The ozone shield protects us from these harmful rays.

  8. On your desk: • I.N. • Pencil/Pen • PRIDE Cards Bell Work 2/5/15 Please write these definitions into your IN (Right hand side). Once you are done with that go ahead and begin working on your Human Impact Advertisement!!! • Acid Rain- form of precipitation that is unusually acidic(low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure. • The Greenhouse effect- A process in which solar radiation is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases and isn’t able to escape back into space. This causes the atmosphere to increase in temperature over time. • Deforestation- the process where forests are cleared.

  9. HUMAN IMPACT PROJECT Due Tomorrow Don’t forget a Catchy slogan!!

  10. Ticket Out the Door!

  11. Bell Work 2/6/15 • On your desk: • I.N. • Pencil/Pen • PRIDE Cards • Human Impact Advertisement 1. What is the topic for your advertisement? 2. In your advertisement, how are humans contributing to the negative impact of this issue? 3. What is one solution to this problem?

  12. The Atmosphere Atmosphere: the layer of gases that surrounds Earth.

  13. The Atmosphere • As you view this time-lapse video write down 5 things that occur in the Earth’s atmosphere. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3L6p1zDs6k

  14. Atmospheric Composition Air is a combination of gases and solid particles.

  15. Atmospheric Composition • Earth’s atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen(78%) and oxygen(21%). • The amounts of nitrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere are fairly constantover time.

  16. Atmospheric Composition But…. the concentrations of some atmospheric gases are not as constant over time… • Any idea of what those gases may be?? • Water vapor • Carbon Dioxide

  17. Atmospheric Composition • During the past 150 years, the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide has increased. • Carbon dioxide traps warm air in our atmosphere and leads to • ….Global warming!

  18. Atmospheric Composition Earth’s atmosphere also contains solids in the form of tiny particles, such as dust, salt, and ice. Very important to the water cycle!!

  19. How many atmospheric layers are there?!?! • http://www.cleanvideosearch.com/media/action/yt/watch?v=dQPyNY2WIdw

  20. Atmospheric Layers The atmosphere is classified into five different layers: Exosphere Thermosphere Mesosphere Stratosphere Troposphere Ionosphere

  21. How do we know this??

  22. Layers of the Atmosphere Each layer is defined by: • Composition of gases • Air Pressure • Temperature Let’s discover more… Grab a book (or iPad!)

  23. Let’s explore each layer! • Materials: • Copy Paper • Scissors • Pencil • Colored Pencils • Text Book

  24. Ticket Out the Door!

  25. Foldable Decorate the front to represent that layer! • What do you need in it?? • For each layer you should include the following information: • What does the prefix mean? Ex: Tropo= “turning” or “change” • As you increase in altitude, temperature __________. • As you increase in altitude, pressure __________. • Two amazing facts about this layer.

  26. Research • Weather and Climate Text Book: pages 4-9 OR • Use your online text book to fill in your foldable

  27. Ticket Out the Door!

  28. On your desk: • I.N. • Pencil/Pen • PRIDE Cards • iPad Bell Work 2/9/15 1. What are the 5 layers of the atmosphere? • Troposphere • Stratosphere • Mesosphere • Thermosphere • Exosphere 2. Can you come up with a fun saying to remember the layers in order??

  29. Target Test 11

  30. Let’s explore each layer! • Materials: • Copy Paper • Scissors • Pencil • Colored Pencils • Text Book

  31. Foldable Page 6-9!! Decorate the front to represent that layer! • What do you need in it?? • For each layer you should include the following information: • What does the prefix mean? Ex: Tropo= “turning” or “change” • As you increase in altitude, temperature __________. • As you increase in altitude, pressure __________. • Two amazing facts about this layer.

  32. Troposphere • Tropo= “turning” or “change” • As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • 90% of the atmosphere’s total mass. • Weather occurs here. • Gases are constantly mixing.

  33. Exosphere • Exo – “outside” or “beyond” • As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • The transitional region between Earth’s atmosphere and outer space • Most satellites orbit in this layer.

  34. Bell Work 2/10/15 • On your desk: • I.N. • Pencil/Pen • PRIDE Cards • iPad 1. What happens to the temperature in the Mesosphere as the altitude increases? • The temperature in the mesosphere decreases. 2. What happens to the temperature in the stratosphere as the altitude increases? • The temperature in the stratosphere increases.

  35. Troposphere • Tropo= “turning” or “change” • As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • 90% of the atmosphere’s total mass. • Weather occurs here. • Gases are constantly mixing.

  36. Stratosphere • Strato– “layers” • As you increase in altitude, temperature increases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • Gases are layered and don’t mix • Ozone layer • Air is thin and contains very little moisture.

  37. Mesosphere • Meso– “middle” • As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • Middle layer • Coldest layer (-93 degrees C)

  38. Thermosphere • Thermo– “heat” • As you increase in altitude, temperature increases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • Atoms of N and O absorb high-energy solar radiation and release thermal energy. • 1,000 degrees C or higher But… it does not feel hot! • (temp is different from heat) • Charged particles cause shimmering lights called auroras!

  39. Exosphere • Exo – “outside” or “beyond” • As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases. • As you increase in altitude, pressure decreases. • Facts: • The transitional region between Earth’s atmosphere and outer space • Most satellites orbit in this layer.

  40. Why does the temperature fluctuate depending on the layer??
