Science Starter Open your SISN to your atmosphere title page. Answer the 5 essential questions on your title page. Did you have legit trouble with any of the questions???

Heat Transfer and Global Winds Vocabulary Heat Transfer and Global Winds

Vocabulary Kim Chart Set up a KIM chart (like we did for the atmosphere unit) with 9 words

Radiation Definition: Energy transferred through empty space as electromagnetic (light) waves; typically from sun. Examples: tanning is radiation from the sun Pic:

Convection Definition: Transfer of energy when air or water of different temperatures rise and fall. Colder, denser material sinks while warmer less dense materails start rise. Examples: boiling water Facts/Characteristics: dense=sinks; less dense=rise

Conduction Definition: Transfer of energy in the form of heat within an object by direct contact. Examples: how a pot warms on the stove; heat transferred from bottom up through the pot Facts/Characteristics: Moves from hot to cold areas

Global winds Definition: The dominant wind patterns that blow in a fairly constant, steady direction across our Earth. Examples: trade winds, westerlies, polar easterlies Facts/Characteristics: named for direction in which they blow from

Jet stream Definition: Narrow band of very strong, westerly air currents that circle the globe. Examples: polar jet stream Facts/Characteristics: can travel up to 100 mph; fast, narrow, winding Pic:

Doldrums Definition: Areas at the equator that have little to no wind. Facts/Characteristics: Located along the equator

Coriolis Effect Definition: Appearance of wind to look curved or deflected due to the rotation of Earth below a layer of gas. Examples: hurricanes turn left (counterclockwise) in northern hemisphere and right (clockwise) in southern hemisphere Facts/Characteristics: effects weather & ocean currents; result of earth's rotation Pic:

Greenhouse gases Definition: Gasses that trap heat in our atmosphere. These contribute to the greenhouse effect by absorbing infrared radiation (heat) produced by the solar warming of the Earth's surface. Examples: They include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (NO2), and water vapor Facts/Characteristics: trap heat which leads to an increase in temp (global warming) Pic:

Greenhouse Effect Definition: A natural warming of Earth due to the trapping of heat due to Earth’s atmosphere. Caused by gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane. Examples: greenhouses and sitting in cars-it gets hot! Facts/Characteristics: would not have weather without the Greenhouse effect Pic:
