2
Identify the sources of water within an environment:
3
What are ground water, surface water, atmospheric water and glaciers.
4
How is water distributed on our earth?
5
Oceans, rivers, lakes, glaciers, underground, ponds
6
Water source that contains salt water.
7
What is the Ocean
8
Water source that contains fresh water.
9
What are lakes, ponds, rivers, and glaciers
10
Percentage of Salt Water and Fresh Water on Earth
11
What is 97% Salt Water and 3% Fresh Water
12
The Earth’s condition at a given time and place.
13
What is weather?
14
The condition of the Earth based on location, collection of weather data and proximity to water and mountains over many years.
15
What is climate?
16
You measure precipitation with a:
17
What is a rain gauge?
18
Air pressure or barometric pressure is measured with:
19
What is a barometer?
20
Instrument used to measure wind speed and direction:
21
What is a wind vane and anemometer?
22
What is happening in Arizona with the weather – explain:
24
Name the front and tell which city it is headed for – tell how you know.
25
It is a cold front and it is headed toward flagstaff and Yuma – I know because it is raining there. Bonus that also means that there is a low pressure system in the area.
26
Explain what is happening where the H and L marks are:
27
L means Low pressure and that brings stormy weather.
H means high pressure and the weather will be nice - it can still be cold – but it will not be stormy. L means Low pressure and that brings stormy weather.
28
Explain the fronts on the West Coast:
29
The cold front with high pressure will bring nicer weather and the cold front with low pressure will bring stormy weather.
30
What kind of storm is about to hit the East coast of America?
31
What is a hurricane?
32
This can cause Wildfires to occur.
33
What is drought?
34
Name the causes of erosion.
35
The movement of material by wind, water, ice, and gravity causes erosion, although mankind is increasingly assisting in that movement.
36
Weathering that happens when rock formations go through a change.
37
What is chemical weathering?
38
Weathering that breaks apart rock at the surface.
39
Mechanical weathering is when rock is physically broken into smaller pieces.
40
The difference between a landform that is changed and a landform that is moved.
41
Weathering – a change in a landform
What is: Weathering – a change in a landform Erosion – when weathering occurs and a landform is moved Deposition – When rock or sand is moved somewhere else by gravity, water, or wind.
42
Rapid processes that change the Earth’s surface:
43
What are earthquakes, volcanoes and floods?
44
Slow processes that change the Earth’s surface:
45
What are wind and weathering?
46
Name the natural disasters that cause changes in the Earth’s Surface and in the atmosphere:
47
What are volcanic eruptions and forest fires?
48
Name evidence that indicates life and environmental conditions have changed:
49
What are tree rings, fish fossils in the desert and ice cores?
50
Explain how wind and water caused erosion.
51
Wind and water changed the soil in each area.
