17.1 The Atmosphere. Unit 7: Atmosphere, Weather, and Climate  Weather – the state of the atmosphere at a given time vs. vs.  Climate – weather over.
Chapter 11 Heating the Atmosphere. Weather versus Climate  Weather  Atmospheric conditions over a short period of time  Constantly changing  Climate.
Meteorology. The Atmosphere Compare the terms weather and climate. Weather refers to the state of the atmosphere at any given time and place. Climate.
