1 Essential Questins Unit One: The Atmsphere Layers f the atmsphere Standards Curse Title: Meterlgy Curse Descriptin: Weather and Climate is the scientific study f atmspheric prcesses and patterns, and their impact n human activities. Weather and Climate examines the cllectin and analysis f meterlgical data at lcal, reginal, and glbal scales. Tpics include the heat, misture, and wind dynamics f the atmsphere, applicatin f satellite and radar data, develpment and impact f thunderstrms, trnades and hurricanes, weather analysis and frecasting, and the study f climate and climate change. Length f Curse (semester lng, r year-lng) Hw d meterlgists study the atmsphere? What is the atmsphere? What is it made f? What des the atmsphere d fr me? Functins: Interpreting Functins F-IFMA.8.c. Translate amng different representatins f functins and relatins: graphs, equatins, pint sets, and tables. Recgnize angles as gemetric shapes that are frmed wherever tw rays share a cmmn endpint, and understand cncepts f angle measurement: a. An angle is measured with reference t a circle with its center at the cmmn endpint f the rays, by cnsidering the fractin f the circular arc between the pints where the tw rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns thrugh 1/360 f a circle is called a ne-degree angle, and can be used t measure angles. b. An angle that turns thrugh n ne-degree angles is said t have an angle measure f n degrees. 6. Measure angles in whle-number degrees using a prtractr. Sketch angles f specified measure. 1.5 Explain hw the revlutin f Earth arund the Sun and the inclinatin f Earth n its axis cause Earth s seasnal variatins (equinxes and slstices).

CCSS.Math.Cntent.8.SP.A.3 Use the equatin f a linear mdel t slve prblems in the cntext f bivariate measurement data, interpreting the slpe and intercept. Weather prcesses such as wind, cluds, and precipitatin are the result f the uneven heating f the Earth by the Sun. The Crilis Effect is the apparent curvature f glbal winds, cean currents and anything that mves freely acrss the Earth s surface. The glbal winds are the winds that blw acrss the entire surface f the Earth, and that they are knwn by different names depending n the rigin f the directin frm which they riginate. Cnvectin cells are a means fr the transfer f energy acrss the Earth s surface and that they result due t the Earth s differential heating.

5 Land breezes are created when the land is cler than the water such as at night and surface winds have t be very light. Sea breezes are frmed by increasing temperature differences between the land and water. Muntain breezes result during the day when the land n the muntain heats the air abve it mre quickly than the valley flr is able t heat the air abve it. Valley breezes result when this warm air expands and frms a lw pressure cell at the tp f the muntain.

Temperature and pressure variatins in air masses result in a variety f different frms f weather, vilent r therwise. Students learn that: Frnts r frntal bundaries result when tw different air masses apprach each ther. The zne where these air masses meet is called a frntal bundary. Cyclnic strms are areas f clsed, circular fluid mtin rtating in the same directin as the Earth. Thunderstrms result frm the rapid upward mvement f warm, mist air. They can ccur inside warm, mist air masses and at frnts. Nr easter characteristics are very similar t a hurricane.
