Climograph Assignment You have been hired by the US military to analyze the climate of Baghdad. Major decisions will be made based on your analysis of the climate of the city. –He wants you to determine when is the best month to launch an attack on the city. Your commander will present you with the following directions…

Climograph Assignment Directions: How to Make a Climate Graph: 1. Plot the data on RAIN (precipitation, shown in inches) as a bar graph by month. 2. Plot the data on TEMP (temperature in degrees Fahrenheit [F]) as a line graph by month. 3. Analyze the your climograph to describe the climates in Baghdad. A. What are the seasons like? When is it hot? When is it cooler? B. During which season(s) is it wet? During which season(s) is it dry? C. Predict the which climate zone Baghdad is in. Predict which biome Baghdad is in. D. When would you decide to launch the attack on Baghdad? Jusitfy your decision.

Assignment - K 4. Locate a climograph for a city in the United States that could serve as an example of each of the 5 Climate types: Tropical, Arid, Temperate, Continental, Polar. - Identify each climograph with the climate type it matches. - You may print your assignment, it, bring it on a flash drive, or sketch the climographs on paper. Use the resource below to locate climographs:

Assignment - H 4. Locate a climograph for a city in the United States that could serve as an example of each of the 6 Biomes: Rainforest, Grassland, Temperate Forest, Desert, Taiga, Tundra 5. Identify four cities that are extremely susceptible to drought. Your cities must meet the criteria below A) Two must be susceptible to drought year round B) Two must be susceptible to drought only during ONE season. Identify the season in which they are most vulnerable. 6. How could these cities improve their drought vulnerability? - What could they do to increase their water supply? - What could they do to decrease their water usage? Use the resource below to locate climographs:
