In class today we watched the powerpoints of the other groups about the climate. SOme powerpoints were good and some were bad. Haha. It was a very boring class.
Solar Energy
○ It uses natural resources to help the environment.
○ There is radiation that is trapped by the clouds which makes life possible on earth.
○ Without solar energy we do not have the sun to make crops and food.
○ Clouds and wind can prevent the suns energy from reaching the earth.
Latitude
○ This goes from north to south.
○ Where you are determines what your climate is going to be
Interaction btwn Land and Water
○ The oceans give the climate
Global Pressure Patterns
○ The earth is overly heated
○ Enlarged cells produce rainless summers
§ Oceanic cells
○ Depended in the pressure give you what temperature you are going to get.
○ Hurricanes are in the Caribbean and North America.
○ There is different patterns depending on the area.
Wind Patterns
○ Different types of wind patterns
○ Air flows from high to low pressures
