Earth’s Atmosphere and Climate Chapter 3

Weather and Climate The difference: Weather- condition of the atmosphere at a given place and time Climate- weather conditions in an area averaged over time

Examples Weather: Hurricane Katrina

More Examples: Climate: page of the text. What climate region are we in???

Greenhouse Effect 1. Sunlight passes through the Earth’s atmosphere. 2. Light is absorbed by the surface and transferred into heat energy. 3. That energy is trapped by the atmosphere, but eventually escapes.

Solar Energy Who gets the most? How can it be distributed to places that don’t receive much? Atmospheric winds and ocean currents

The Global Winds Prevailing Trade Doldrums Westerlies Polar Define and give an example of each
