It is 1765. You are a scientist that has been asked by Laurent Lavoisier (first scientist to measure weather) to be a member of the first official meteorology team.
The team has been given the directions for how to make the following pieces of weather equipment: barometer, rain gauge, hygrometer, weather vane & anemometer. Your team’s assignment is to collect weather data for 5 days, keep a weather journal (observations & actual), and use this information to answer the following questions:
What patterns are there between the measurements collected when using the equipment and the weather?
How can future scientists use this equipment to predict the weather?
Were there any pieces of equipment that you would like to improve? If so, how would you improve them?

Please complete each of the following tasks to share with a partner during our next class:
A. Read and write summary notes
B. Create a visual (i.e. word web, flow chart, labeled diagram, etc.) that represents the main points discussed in your section
C. Write 3 original questions to ask you partner so that you can check her/his understanding of your summary & diagram
Hydrosphere & Ocean Currents

Global Wind Patterns

Currents are caused by: Convection currents Wind Earth’s rotation Heat capacity of water Shapes of Continents Salt in water
Ocean Currents

Water, land & plants gain energy from sun & surroundings
Energy gain = faster water molecules
Faster water molecules = rising water vapour
At high altitude, temp. is colder & water vapour liquid (condensation)
Energy & Condensation

Clouds: Fine droplets of water Light Carried by wind
Cloud Formation: Convective – moist air near ground rises &
cools Frontal – moving air masses meet; cold & warm Orographic – warm, moist air moves up
mountain & cools

Droplets accumulate & cool Heavy, larger droplets = falling condensation
(rain) Types:1. Drizzle – fine drops2. Rain – larger drops3. Freezing rain – cold rain hits cold surface4. Snow – water vapour crystallizes on tiny solid
particles (below 0˚C)5. Hail – cumulonimbus clouds; frozen, layered
drops
Condensation (p. 556):

1. Explain one thing that common about the causes of condesation and wind.
Wind: Moves in predictible pattern Leads to movement of condensation Creates predictable weather patterns
(hurricane path)
