1 ATMOSPHERE AIR MOVEMENT DEFINE: CORIOLIS EFFECT JET STREAM SEA BREEZE LAND BREEZE

2 ATMOSPHERE AIR MOVEMENT SEQUENCE HOW HEATED AIR AND THE CORIOLIS EFFECT FORM WINDS 1.THE EQUATOR RECEIVES___________________________________________ 2. AS A RESULT, AIR NEAR THE EQUATOR IS _____________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ 3. DENSE AIR MOVES FROM_____________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ 4. THE ROTATION OF EARTH CAUSES _____________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ 5. THUS, THE CORIOLIS EFFECT CAUSES___________________________________

3 ATMOSPHERE AIR MOVEMENT COMPLETE 1.Caused by the uneven heating of Earth and its atmosphere. 2.Imaginary line around the middle of Earth. 3.Windless zone at the equator which sailing vessels try to avoid. 4.Winds generally responsible for the movement of weather across the United States and Canada. 5.Wind that provide a dependable route for trade. 6.Cool breezes during the day caused by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water. 7.Narrow belts of strong winds at high altitudes which blow near the top of the troposphere. 8.Cool breezes at night cause by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water. 9.Heat from the sun. 10.The deflection of air masses resulting from Earth’s eastward rotation. 11.Winds that blow from the North and South Poles
