Questions page A 54 3) Why do some winds change direction in areas where land is near water? 6) Suppose that a city is located in a valley between the sea and a mountain range. What kind of wind pattern would you predict for this area? Knowledge Check
Answers to questions: 3) Land and water heat up and cool down at different rates. These differences cause daily or seasonal changes in air pressure, leading to changes in wind direction. 6) During the day, air would blow from the sea into the city and out of the city up the mountain slopes. At night, the pattern would reverse. How did you do?
Read the pages about wind patterns. Summarize each section by writing at least 4 key points in bullet formatin your own words (don’t copy word-for-word from textbook.) Pages A 47-48 & 53 • Section 2.2 The Atmosphere has wind patterns. • Uneven heating causes air to move. • Patterns of heating and cooling cause local winds • Local winds Summarizing McDougall Text p.
