Is temperature effected by how close you live to the equator? COLDER L atitude

1. Caused by unequal heating of earth’s surface 2. Low pressure = warm, moist air → rises & forms clouds → storms 3. High pressure = cold, dry air → sinks → stable and clear weather A ir Pressure

M ountain Barrier

Elevation Increase in elevation = Decrease in temperature ↑ 1000 ft = ↓ 3.6°F COLD COOL WARM HOT

Each One, Share One… I learned …

Continental Location Oceans are solar energy collectors because water heats & cools more slowly than land… 1. Coastline has a stable temperature 2. Interior of continent has extreme temperatures (hotter & colder). GO TO PAGE S-33 IN YOUR BOOK!

Ocean Currents 1. Giant rivers of sea water flowing at surface of oceans 2. Flow in circular paths: Warm currents carry water from low → high latitudes, Cool currents return cooled water from high → low latitudes.

Doodle It Find a space in your foldable under Continental Location or Ocean Currents. Draw a new picture to represent what you have learned.

Wind Currents Wind belts “Wind” = movement of air from high pressure to low pressure (ex: poke a hole in a tire) Trade Winds: high P (30°) → low P (0°) Westerlies: high P (30°) → low P (60°) carry weather across U.S. from west → east Polar winds: → bring cold air from poles (90° → 60°)

Storms Occur during low pressure conditions. Storm front = when two air masses with different temperatures meet. 1. Thunderstorms: Fronts & high pressure areas along equator 2. Tornadoes – formed along fronts 3. Tropical storms (hurricanes) – formed in oceans
