Do Now 10 - 20 Name the landform below.
The Earth’s Geography 2-3 Climate and Weather
Vocabulary Weather – the condition of the air and sky from day to day Precipitation – water that falls to the ground as rain, sleet, hail, or snow Temperature – how hot or cold the air is Climate – the average weather over many years Tropical Cyclone – an intense wind and rain storm that forms over oceans in the tropics
Weather or Climate? Weather see vocabulary notes Precipitation see vocabulary notes Temperature see vocabulary notes How is Weather is the day to day weather weather temperature different India depends on weather than its water for the year climate? Climate is the year to year temperature
Why Climates Vary How do Climate depends on location climates Low latitude = ________________ change High latitude= ________________ based on location? Air and water spread heat across the globe No wind and water = tropics overheat Oceans mild near coast Mountains affect climate too
Oceans and Climates Oceans help distribute Earth’s heat and shape climates Global wind patterns create ocean currents Ocean currents go across great distances Warm water away from equator Cold water toward equator
Oceans and Currents Atlantic Ocean = Gulf Stream (warm) Gulf Stream and North Atlantic Current go all way to Europe Peru Current = cold Moves N along coast of S America
Ocean Cooling and Warming Effects Water takes longer to heat or cool than land Air and Land go up the water is cool Air over water = cool land Near ocean or lake = cooler than inland
Raging Storms What Wind and water can help create kinds large dangerous storms of storms Tropical cyclones (hurricanes) are Winds near the center dangerous? reach more than100miles/hr Tornadoes – funnels of wind Reach up to 200 miles/hr As dangerous as hurricanes, but affect smaller areas
