6 Explain the relationship between altitude and temperature in earth’s atmosphere
What percentage of the atmosphere makes up Nitrogen? Oxygen? Other gases? What process created the oxygen that exists in today's atmosphere. Describe earth’s first atmosphere? The second atmosphere, today’s atmosphere? What is out gassing? Describe the current theory of how water accumulated on the Earth Describe what a greenhouse gas is and how this process works on Venus, The Earth and Mars?

8 Label with H for high pressure and L for Low pressure
Describe the type of air that would be sinking Describe the type of air that is rising Winds always travel from what pressure to what pressure? Explain why based on the images. High pressure are associated with what type of weather? Low pressures are associated with what type of weather.

12 A full feather = ____ knots A half feather = ____knots
Use Earth Science reference tables in the back of your textbook and fill in the blanks with the appropriate terms Why do meteorologists use station models? What is the rule for barometric pressure ? (hint when do you add a 0 or 9) How much cloud cover is indicated? What direction is the wind blowing?

14 Label with the correct term
What does each one measure? Which one has the biggest impact on our weather? Why? What do we call scientists who work with the weather? How accurate are weather forecasts For 1 day, 3 day & 5 days. Besides these tools what 3 other inventions are important for weather forecasting.
