7. 6. Atmospheric Circulation : a.Global winds distribute heat and moisture around Earth b.Warm/moist air created near equator and moves toward cool/dry areas of the poles.

8. Earth’s Major Climate Zones TROPICAL TEMPERATE POLAR 23.5° latitude = desert Equa tor 0° latitude = rainforest

11. Climate Map 30° latitude 0° latitude

12. Alaska video clip

13. D. What kind of changes occur over time that may affect the climate? 1. Procession a.The change in the shape of the Earth's orbit around the sun. b.It is thought that the shape of Earth’s orbit around the sun changes over a 100,000 year cycle. c.When the orbit is more circular rather than an ellipse, Earth is farther from the sun and the temperature becomes colder.

14. Spring Summ er Autum n Winter

15. 2. Plate movement /Geography a.Tectonic plates move so they will eventually change the location of landforms, and therefore may affect the climate patterns on the Earth.

17. Blue-North America Yellow – Africa Purple – Australia Green – South America

18. 3. Atmospheric Conditions a.An increase in clouds may lead to an increased greenhouse effect trapping gases in the atmosphere making our temperatures rise. b.It is also believed that an increase in clouds allows them to reflect more solar radiation which produces a cooling effect on the climate.

20. 4. Greenhouse Effect & Global Warming a.Greenhouse Effect- natural warming of Earth’s atmosphere 1.Greenhouse gases = carbon dioxide and water vapor 2.Effected by human activites, such as increase in carbon dioxide. b.Global Warming 1.Increase in carbon dioxide and water vapor may lead to warmer Earth 2.Higher evaporation, melting of ice caps

21. Effects of Greenhouse Gases Natural Earth After CO2 pollution

22. Temp vs. CO2

23. 5. Volcanoes a.When a volcano erupts, it puts enormous volumes of dust, ash, smoke & chemicals into the atmosphere. b.The dust and ash particles in the air block solar radiation from reaching the surface of the Earth. This causes the Earth’s temperature to drop.
