Lesson Topic
unequal heatingf and air currents
Lesson Outline
List, view diagrams, and discuss the 5 layers of the atmosphere starting from the closest, the troposphere to the farthest, the exosphere. List the factors present in each one which affect cooling, heating, solar radiation blockage, and the albedo affect. Discuss the 3 major causes of uneven warming. These include variation of the Earth's angle, the variation of surface area illuminated, and the albedo affect. Discuss how air currents are influenced by temperature change, how air currents carry warm and cold air to different regions, and how currents move moisture around the planet. Discuss the four properties that determine how air circulates. Introduce abiabatic cooling and heating along with latent heating, and their effects.
