Atmospheric Layers
The first Layer of the atmosphere
Troposphere is the first one at 33,000 miles from earth
is important to predict weather patterns
Air pressure
Forms relatively moist and slides over the cold air mass
A warm front
Lighting,high winds,and heavy rain
Tornado or Thunderstorm
Thunderstorm
The main belts that move across the earth in a particular way
Global Winds
The layer where meteors burn up
Mesosphere
The tool to measure Air pressure
A barometer
Lots of heavy rain is produced
A cold front
A violently rotating column or air that connects with the earth.
A Tornado
A force that cause moving objects on earth to be deflected to the right.
The Coriolis Effect
The height from earth of the Stratosphere
50 km (31 miles) from earth is the stratosphere
Low Altitude
High or Low pressure
High Pressure
A front that last for several hours or days
Warm front
Storms that contain lighting
Thunder storms
A breeze that is blown toward the sea from the land
Land breeze
The average temperature of the thermosphere
500 degrees Celsius (932 degrees)
The definition of Air pressure
the weight of air molecules pushing down on earth's surface
Can cause Tornadoes and or Thunderstorms to form
Cold Front
A violent sort lived weather disturbance with lighting and thunder.
A Thunderstorm
Air flows over a small area on earth due to air pressure
Local winds
The farthest layer of the atmosphere and height
Exosphere with a height of 190,000 km (120,000) from earth.
A high altitude
High or Low pressure?
Low pressure
Moves more slower and can bring snow
Warm front
Forms from super cells storms
Tornadoes
A breeze blowing toward the land coming from the sea
Sea breeze
