  3. 1,1 What is ultraviolet radiation? These wavelengths are a little bit shorter than visible light

  4. 1,2 • What is precipitation? Any form of water that falls from clouds is called this.

  5. 1,3 • What is wind? • This is caused by differences • in air pressure.

  6. 1,4 • What is conduction? This is heat transfer between two substances that are in contact.

  7. 2,1 • What is infrared radiation? This is the energy that heats up earth’s atmosphere.

  8. 2,2 • What is rain? • Most of the world receives • more of this type of • precipitation than snow.

  9. 2,3 • What are local winds? These are caused by unequal heating in a small area.

  10. 2,4 • What is radiation? • This is the type of heat • you would receive from • a campfire.

  11. 3,1 • What is the greenhouse effect? This is the process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere.

  12. 3,2 • What are clouds? These form when water vapor in the air becomes liquid or ice crystals.

  13. 3,3 What are the horse latitudes? These are located at about 30 degrees N and S and are areas of calm.

  14. 3,4 • What is convection? This type of heat occurs because cold air is more dense than warm air.

  15. 4,1 What is thermal energy? This is the total energy of motion in the molecules of a substance.

  16. 4,2 What are cumulonimbus clouds? These are large clouds that often produce thunder storms.

  17. 4,3 What is anemometer? • This instrument measures • wind speed.

  18. 4,4 What is condensation? This will occur when warm air touches a cold glass.

  19. 5,1 What is the ozone? • This absorbs most of Earth’s • incoming UV radiation.

  20. 5,2 • What is a psychrometer? • This is used to measure • relative humidity.

  21. 5,3 What is the Coriolis effect? • This is the theory that Earth’s • rotation makes winds seem • to curve.

  22. 5,4 What is convection? This is mostly what heats the troposphere.

  23. Draw, label, and define the3 main cloud types.
