Chapter 16: 1ab, 3, 6ab, 7abc, 9ab, 11a, 12ab Meteo 003: Lab 10 Chapter 16: 1ab, 3, 6ab, 7abc, 9ab, 11a, 12ab
16.1 pg. 709 a) Look at the detail of the white swath in the visible image (fig. 16.41 a) Reference the precip. and temp. information in the surface chart (fig. 16.41 b) b) Isoplething as usual How would snow cover affect the sfc. temps.?
16.3 pg. 710 Snow: Below freezing the entire descent (or very small warm layer) Sleet: Small warm layer melts snow then refreezes as an ice pellet in lower cold layer Freezing Rain: Warm layer melts snow but cannot refreeze in shallower lower cold layer
16.6 pg. 712 a) Don’t need to show a calculation The shallower the lake, the quicker it freezes b) Same concept as part a This Great Lake freezes the fastest and has the highest concentration of ice Use figure 16.44
16.7 pg. 712 a) Surface air near water can approximately take on the temperature of the water, remember to convert to Celsius b) Remember how winds circulate around a High Surface winds will cross isobars approximately 30ᵒ Long axis of precipitation bands will form in direction of wind c) What type of precipitation was this and how was it formed?
16.9 pg. 716 a) Find the largest anomalies on figure 16.49 b) Draw isopleths of snowfall the same way Where are the largest totals located and what weather phenomenon is common here in the winter?
16.11 pg. 718 a) Use figure 16.30 to find the wind chill values for all the combinations Use the key on the table to find the combination that gives the risk of frostbite to exposed skin in 30 minutes
16.12 pg. 719 a) Energy Loss = Energy Production Solve for Resistance b) Energy Loss remains the same but Energy Production drops Energy Loss > Energy Production : “feel colder” Energy Loss < Energy Production : “feel warmer” Simply solve for
