Lesson 1
Between tropical and polar zones are these.
What are temperate zones?
Arid regions.
What are deserts?
Period of glacial advance.
What is the Ice Age?
Temperature increase is an effect of this.
What is global warming?
What are temperate zones?
Where warmer areas are usually found.
What is closer to the equator?
Subarctic climates lie north of this.
What are humid continental climates?
Aerosols are released through these.
Clean energy refers to this.
Climate region stretching across Alaska and Canada and Russia.
What is the tundra?
These depend on the movement of huge air masses.
What are weather patterns?
Most of these climates are relatively dry because its air contains little moisture.
What are polar climates?
What are the affects in global patterns of winds and ocean currents?
This is how exhaust is released.
What is when fossil fuels are burned?
Permanently frozen soil.
What is permafrost?
Temperature is affected by this.
What is latitude, altitude, ocean currents?
What is temperature and precipitation?
Tree rings can tell a story about this.
What are ancient climates?
The total amount of greenhouse gases emitted directly and indirectly.
What is carbon footprint?
Rain or snow falls on this side of a mountain.
What is the windward side?
These are the main factors that affect precipitation.
What are prevailing winds, presence of mountains, and seasonal winds?
Highland regions are colder than the regions around them because of this.
Changes in the sun's energy output can be a possible explanation for this.
What is a major climate change?
What is solar energy?
Semiarid area.
What is a steppe?
