Our Geography Experiment Our Investigation was to find out the micro climate in different places in the school. A micro climate is a climate in a small area. The warmest place is M Block as there is a building to stop the wind The coldest place is behind C Block as there is a lot of wind

Behind M Block: it was warm with winds of 0-1 mph the aspects were North there was no shelter and the surface was grass. Bottom of Field: It was cold the wind direction was south and wind were mph the aspects were south and the shelter was a tree the surface we were standing on was grass Behind C Block huts: was cold and the winds were mph there was no shelter and the surface was grass. Dance Studios: was warm and the winds were 4-7 mph the aspects were north west and the shelter was a tree the surface was also grass. Front Gates: were cold the wind direction was south winds were 4-7 mph the surface was pavement and there was no shelter. P.E: was cold and the wind direction was east the wind speed was 1-3 mph the shelter was a gutter and the surface was pavement.

Student Reception: was warm and the wind direction was south west the wind direction was 1-3 mph there was no shelter and the surface was pavement. Middle of Field: was cold and the wind direction was south the wind speed was 1-3 mph there was no shelter and the surface was the cricket strip. Double Doors: was very warm as there was no wind the wind speed was 0-1 mph there was a shelter and the surface was pavement. A Block Huts: was cold the wind was east and the wind speed was 1-3 mph there was no shelter and the surface was pavement.
