1. Tuesday, 10/7/2014 In Class: 1.Prepare to take CN 1.OBJ: SWBAT explain how the Coriolis Effect is one of the factors that drives atmospheric circulation. 2.Topic: Atmospheric Circulation 2.Take Cornell Notes 3.Key topics with each short video… make sure to take notes! (skeleton provided on slides to follow) Homework: 1.Create Questions and summary for your cornell notes.

2. Earth Information (I’m presenting using globe) Draw a 2” circle representing Earth Draw a line ½ way through representing the equator (0degrees latitude) Rotation = Revolution = Hemispheres… North and South As I model with the globe, take additional notes

3. Global Atmospheric Circulation http://youtu.be/Ye45DGkqUkE http://youtu.be/Ye45DGkqUkE Take notes on key ideas (do NOT write these on the left hand side of CN – that area is for your questions. Energy source driving the winds = Type of heat transfer “driving” the winds =, warmer air rises and cooler air sinks __________ Effect is the reason the winds bend toward the equator. Trade winds…. (take notes from video & I will help fill in details) Which way do Westerlies blow? From _________ to ___________

4. Coriolis Effect: http://youtu.be/i2mec3vgeaI http://youtu.be/i2mec3vgeaI Take notes on key ideas (do NOT write these on the left hand side of CN – that area is for your questions) Northern Hemispheres spin _______________, and Southern Hemisphere storms spin ___________________ because of the ____________________________. Illustrate: Coriolis Effect = Why? Which state is spinning faster than the other? Texas or Nebraska Why? What does this mean for you if you want to be a pilot or fly in a plane?

5. Please open your book to p484 Reading, taking notes on 6 paragraphs between 484-486… you will need the three colored pencils.
