2. Objectives & Learning Goals: Meteorologists/ Astronomers CAN:
Investigate weather patterns such as the jet stream, ocean currents, and weather fronts using a webquest.
Review important concepts for EOC exam using the interactive website.
Level 4
I can evaluate how weather models use current atmospheric conditions to predict the weather and analyze climate data to take a stance on the possibility of climate change.
Level 3
I can describe how global patterns such as the jet stream and ocean currents influence local weather AND clearly differentiate between weather and climate.
Level 2
I can describe how ocean currents and winds move around the Earth, list factors that influence weather formation, and summarize examples of weather and climate data.
Level 1
With help I can explain some factors that influence weather and the difference between weather and climate.

5. The ocean acts as like a “massive heat retaining solar panel
The ocean acts as like a “massive heat retaining solar panel.” Therefore it’s currents can regulate the weather and climate of cities those currents flow close to.
