Water Cycle
The process of water changing into an invisible gas called water vapor
What is evaporation
Cloud that forms at the earth’s surface
What is Fog
What is a sea breeze and a land breeze
What is Land breezes come from land while sea breezes come from the ocean or other large bodies of water.
THERMOMETER
What is measures the air temperature
Amount of water vapor in the air
What is humidity
White, puffy clouds that look like piles of cotton; they are known as fair-weather clouds
What are cumulus clouds
What causes a land breeze
What is the wind will blow from the higher pressure over the water to lower pressure over the land causing the sea breeze. The sea breeze strength will vary depending on the temperature difference between the land and the ocean. At night, the roles reverse. The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land.
BAROMETER
What is measures air pressure
The process of water vapor turning into water droplets
What is condensation
Thin, feathery clouds that appear high in the sky; they are a sign that rain or snow is on the way
What are cirrus clouds
ANEMOMETER
What is measures wind speed
Define Relative Humidity
What is Relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air and how much water vapor can hold air at a given temperature
Gray clouds that cover the lower part of the sky; rain or snow falls from them
What are stratus clouds
HYGROMETER
What is measures the water vapor
Water that is found underground
What is groundwater
Tall, dark clouds that mean thunderstorms with heavy rain and strong winds
What are cumulonimbus clouds
SLING PSYCHROMETER
What is measures relative humidity
