Study of water properties and distribution on Earth.
Hydrology
Is a ____ blanket of gases surrounding the Earth, held in place by the planet's gravity.
Atmosphere
Numerical measure of hot and cold; is a measure of the quality of a state of a material.
Temperature
The word which can also refer to sunlight or the solar resource, refers to the electromagnetic radiation that the sun emits.
Solar radiation
A representation of the distribution of rainfall intensity over time during a storm event.
Hyetograph
Is the study of water's mechanical behavior in physical systems, analyzing its movement in engineering structures like rivers and storm drain networks.
Hydraulics
Give 2 composition of the Atmosphere
Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide
Mainly closed glass tubes that contain liquids like alcohol or mercury.
Thermometer
Heat can be transferred in 3 Ways give atleast 1
1. Conduction 2. Radiation 3. Convection
They are invisible to the human eye and have the most serious impact on the skin (burns, spots, wrinkles).
Ultraviolet (UV) rays
Give 1 impact of Hydrologic Cycle
1.) The hydrologic cycle sustains human life by providing essential water resources.
2.) It facilitates activities such as irrigation for agriculture and hydroelectric power generation.
3.)Water from the cycle supports recreational activities and serves as a primary source of food production.
4.) Without the hydrologic cycle, human existence would be unsustainable.
Are visible accumulations of tiny water droplets or ice crystals in the Earth’s atmosphere.
Clouds
1 Geographical Distribution of Temperature
a.) Landmasses b.) Topography c.) Vegetation
for measuring hemispherical short wave radiation, i.e... the combined intensity of direct solar radiation and diffuse sky radiation.
Pyranometer
Out of the 4 list 2 Water Cycle Processes.
a. Evaporation
b. Condensation
c. Precipitation
d. Surface Runoff
Give at least 1 of the Similarities and Difference of Hydrology and Hydraulics.
Similarities:
• Both hydrology and hydraulics are types of engineering that deal with water.
• They study how water moves, but in different places.
• They help us understand how water works in nature and in cities.
• They help us solve flooding problems and make better water systems.
Difference:
• Hydrology focuses on water circulation and precipitation assessment in the environment.
• Hydraulics analyzes water's mechanical behavior within physical systems like rivers and storm drain networks.
• Hydraulics designs and analyzes hydraulic structures for efficient water management.
• Hydrology evaluates water quantity, quality, and movement patterns.
3 Stability form of the Atmosphere
1. Stable Atmosphere
2. Unstable Atmosphere
3. Neutral Atmosphere
At least 2 Variation of Temperature
a.) Temperature Variations
b.) Diurnal Variation
c.) Seasonal Variation
d.) Variation with Latitude
e.) Variations with Topography
f.) Variation with Altitude
