Question
Answer
show Weather is short-term conditions of wind, temperature, and precipitation for the day or week  
🗑
What is climate?   show
🗑
show Weather is short term and climate is long term.  
🗑
show If the climate is very hot than we might experience a drought that can affect what we eat because if there is no water than we can't grow crops because you need to water to grow crops.  
🗑
show Climate can influence what we wear because if the climate is hot than we will want to wear cooler clothes because that type of clothes can cool you down.  
🗑
How can climate influence how we build shelter?   show
🗑
show Climate change is a change in weather patterns that is caused by human actions or nature's events.-Conditions will be different depending on location-.  
🗑
show Global warming is an increase in the world’s average temperatures near the earth’s surface.  
🗑
Explain how a rise in average global temperature can affect food.   show
🗑
Explain how a rise in average global temperature can affect water.   show
🗑
show If the temperature keeps rising than coral reefs can be damaged and species can become extinct because they may not be used to the warmer temperatures.  
🗑
Explain why climate change doesn't affect everyone in the same way, using Africa and Canada as examples. Part 1   show
🗑
Explain why climate change doesn't affect everyone in the same way, using Africa and Canada as examples. Part 2   show
🗑
Explain how climate change has affected the lives of people living in Australia.   show
🗑
How is Australia’s coal use related to rising temperatures and changes in rainfall?   show
🗑
show Put taxes on the 500 biggest polluters in Australia so they pay for how much carbon dioxide they release into the air. Solar city program so that houses and businesses use energy more wisely.  
🗑
show Temperature, Precipitation and Wind condition  
🗑
show Earth's surface, The atmosphere, All the water on Earth, All the ice on Earth and All the life on Earth  
🗑
What powers the climate on Earth?   show
🗑
What are the two main pieces of data on a climate graph?   show
🗑
show First you need to know all the average monthly temperatures. Then you add all of the average monthly temperatures for a year and divide by 12 to get the temperature range  
🗑
How do you determine the temperature range?   show
🗑
How do you determine the total annual precipitation?   show
🗑
How do you determine the precipitation pattern?   show
🗑
What are the first 5 world climate regions?   show
🗑
What are the last 4 world climate regions?   show
🗑
show Latitude,Ocean currents,Winds,Elevation,Relief and Nearness to Bodies of Water. LOW are global ERN are local.  
🗑
Define prevailing wind.   show
🗑
Define trade winds.   show
🗑
Which hemisphere contains more land, Northern or Southern? How does that affect wind?   show
🗑
show Air Mass: A large volume of air with similar conditions of temperature and moisture throughout.  
🗑
show Middle of North America is dry because the air masses are moving over land instead of water,they don’t pick up as much moisture.Air masses that have a large body of water near them tend to be moist because the air masses pick up water that is evaporating.  
🗑
show At higher elevation,the air is drier,there isn't enough air pressure to keep the moisture in,causes precipitation to form at lower elevations.Also higher elevation air that is forced up will cool down,causes temperatures in mountainous areas to drop.  
🗑
show It can force air up over higher pieces of land.This causes relief precipitation on the windward slope.At higher points along the mountain,the air drops the precipitation,and can cause water to form on the peaks of mountains in the form of snow.  
🗑
show The land heats up more quickly and cools down more quickly.Provides moisture for nearby land.Water evaporates from water bodies into the air.Places near large bodies of water experience more precipitation.  
🗑
How can volcanoes cause climate change?   show
🗑
How can the Sun’s activity affect climate?   show
🗑
show When part of the Earth is tilted away from the sun than that part will receive less energy from the sun unlike a part that is tilted towards the sun which will receive more energy than others.  
🗑
What are three gases that cause the greenhouse effect?   show
🗑
List, in order from greatest to least, six sources of greenhouse gases caused by human activity.   show
🗑
What is the difference between mitigation and adaptation when we take action to fight climate change?   show
🗑
