Unit 8 Notes: Climate Change Biology Unit 8 Notes: Climate Change

(1) Climate Climate: Average, annual conditions of temperature and precipitation in Earth-regions. Weather = day to day conditions. Climate is Impacted By: Earth’s tilt, rotation, orbit Location of Land and Water masses Wind and Water Currents Concentrations of Greenhouse Gases, Organisms, Inorganic Compounds

(2) Greenhouse Effect Greenhouse Effect: The containment of heat on Earth due to shielding gases. Greenhouse Gases: Gases which absorb heat, subsequently warming earth’s atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide Methane Water Vapor

(3) Global Warming Global Warming: Constant, overall heating of the entire planet. (Not the most accurate term to use.) Cause: Human Impact Dramatic increase in greenhouse gases (produced by humans)

(4) Climate Change Climate Change: A regular, natural change in the earth’s climates due to a variety of factors working together. Cause: Any one of the factors which impacts climate Humans are not helping
