1. How to study: Review your Notes (read them over carefully) Read over sections in the textbook or review book you are not clear about Practice sample questions: from the review book/practice quiz or online (regentsprep.org) Memorization – flash cards, copy lists WHY STUDY FOR A QUIZ/TEST?

2. Key Concepts for Quiz  Convection – process of heat rising due to density changes (candle and smoke!)  Conduction – Transfer of energy molecule to molecule (has to touch)  Insolation – the energy (radiation) received from the Sun (through space)  Various forms of radiation distinguished by wavelength

3. Key Concepts for Quiz Continued  Reflect – radiation reflected back out of the Earth’s atmosphere  Absorb – take in radiation (opposite of reflect)  Scattered – radiation which is spread around in the atmosphere

4. Quiz Review  When the Earth receives radiation from the Sun, not all of it is absorbed.  Some of the energy is reflected and/or scattered.

5. Quiz Review  The energy that is absorbed by Earth is absorbed by various surfaces.  Darker colored surfaces reflect less light but absorb more energy.  Lighter colored surfaces reflect more light but absorb less energy.

6. Quiz Review  The gasses that contribute to the Greenhouse Effect are Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) Methane (CH 4 ) Nitrous Oxide (N 2 O) Water Vapor (H 2 O)  These contribute to the climate change!

7. Quiz Review  In page 14 of the ESRT there is a chart of the atmosphere and the different parts of it.  We discussed that the ozone (O 3 ) layer is in the stratosphere.  What is noticeable about the different parts of the atmosphere? Temperature Zones The “pauses” between them. Altitude

8. Quiz Review  Radiation is on ESRT page 14.  Notice two things: Wavelength of radiation increases from right to left.

9. PRACTICE QUIZ Question #1

10.  Answer is #1  Think of a blacktop in the summer. It gets hot quicker because it is a dark surface that absorbs energy and reflects less! Question #1

11. Question #2

12.  Answer is #2  LOOK AT THE SPIKE ON GRAPH – NO OTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED TO GET ANSWER. Question #2

13. Question #3

14.  Answer is #1  Look at picture on ESRT (page 14) and it gives answer!  There is no temperature given off, different source, or differing speeds.  Process of elimination! Question #3

15. Question #4 4

16. Question #5 1

17. Question #6

18.  Answer is #1  Strictly a vocabulary question.  Terrestrial radiation is infrared.  Specific heat – how easily things heat up.  Convection – process of moving heat due to density differences. Question #6

19. Question #7 1

20. ESRT P.1!!  There are two main gasses within the atmosphere: Nitrogen (78%) Oxygen (21%)  98% of the atmosphere are made of these gasses!  We need these to survive and maintain life on Earth.

21. Question #8

22.  Answer is #3  Kilometers are on the left hand side, miles are on right hand side. Question #8

23. Question #9 2

24. Question #10 1

25. Question #11 4
