Of the amount of the energy that reaches earth, this percentage is absorbed by earth’s surface Atmospheric Heating What is 50%?
The total amount of the Sun’s released energy that reaches our planet. Atmospheric Heating What is about 2 billionths?
The energy from this drives the weather cycle. Atmospheric Heating What is the Sun?
Virtually all of the energy that reaches our planet comes from here Atmospheric Heating What is the Sun?
Radiation that reaches Earth does either this or that Atmospheric Heating What are absorption and reflection?
This type of heat transfer moves in circles through air and water Heating Transfer What is convection?
Energy as heat passes through a material Heat Transfer What is thermal conduction?
When energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves Heat Transfer What is radiation?
This transfer heats air directly next to the earth’s surface. Heat Transfer What is thermal conduction?
Currents created in air are caused by rising warm air and sinking cool air Heat Transfer What is convection?
These atmospheric gases trap enough heat for life on Earth. Climate Change What are greenhouse gases?
The ratio of energy coming into the atmosphere vs. the energy going out of the atmosphere. Climate Change What is the radiation balance?
a gradual increase in average global temperature thought to be caused by deforestation, burning of fossil fuels, and industrial pollution. Climate Change What is climate change or global warming?
Scientists use these arctic samples to study the atmosphere from the past Climate Change What are ice core samples?
This expression describes how radiation transfers to thermal energy in the atmosphere and on Earth, then is trapped by gases in the atmosphere. Climate Change What is the greenhouse effect?
The reason the equatorial region (tropics) are warmer than the polar region? Labs: S. Angle/E. Materials What is solar angle?
This earth material was quickest to heat and quickest to cool. Labs: S. Angle/E. Materials What is air?
A cool and fresh breeze that blows in from the sea while you tan on a hot beach. DAILY DOUBLE – Labs! What is a sea breeze?
This earth material was slowest to heat and slowest to cool. Labs: S. Angle/E. Materials What is water?
A term that describes how the amount of solar energy decreases as you move away from the equator. Labs: S. Angle/E. Materials What is beam spreading?
Your feet burn when you walk out onto a black road on a hot summer day. CCR What is conduction?
The reason the blacktop gets hot on a sunny day. CCR What is radiation?
The reason that the best place to put a space heater is at floor level. CCR What is convection?
Water molecules circulate while boiling in a pot. CCR What is convection?
A burger is frying on one side in a pan. CCR What is conduction?
