3-1 Weather and Climate

Weather Short term changes in the air for a given time and place

Climate A region’s average weather of a long period of time

Sun and Location Earth’s tilt – creates seasons Tilted towards Sun – Summer Away from Sun - Winter

Sun is more concentrated near equator

Cold air sinks Warm air rises WIND!

Winds Prevailing winds – winds that are blown in the same direction over large areas

Earth’s rotation causes winds to curve

Ocean Currents Large streams of surface water Move heat around Affect air temperatures

Gulf Stream North Atlantic Drift

Large Bodies of Water Make land temperatures for mild Water heats and cools slower that land

Storms Air mass – large body of air Front – place where to air masses meet

Fronts create storms

Mountains Rain shadow Cooling moist air on one side Warming dry air on one side
