Understanding Weather Patterns and Water Cycle Fundamentals

This resource explores critical concepts in meteorology and hydrology. It covers the types of fronts formed during the interaction of warm and cold air masses, the causes of thunder, and the process of water vapor condensation. Additionally, it explains the water cycle's stages—evaporation, condensation, and precipitation—along with the implications of rising chemical levels in water supplies and the characteristics of aquifers. The content emphasizes distinguishing between renewable and nonrenewable resources, highlighting the Sun as the primary energy source for ecosystems.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Week 24

  2. 1. What type of front forms when a warm air mass overtakes a cold air mass? Cold Warm Stationary occluded

  3. 2. Lightning causes a rapiod expansion and collapse of the air that produces Thunder Hair Cyclones Rain

  4. 3.The process of adding freezing nuclei to supercooled clouds is called Ionizing Seeding Jetting Linking

  5. 4. What happens when water vapor condenses? It turns from a solid to a flowing liquid It turns from a vapor into a liquid It turns to ice It leaves the liquid state and becomes a cloud.

  6. 5. Where water evaporates from ocean water it Changes to a solid Changes to a liquid Changes to a gas Dries out

  7. 6. The progression of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation is called the Change of seasons Weather Water cycle Vernal equinox

  8. 7. A scientist finds levels of a certain chemical in a local water supply have risen over the past month. This is an example of Analyzing data Collecting data Organizing data Communicating data

  9. 8.Municipal water supplies sometimes come from pumping water out of an aquifer. Where is the water held in the aquifer before it is pumped out? Impermeable rock Underground rivers flowing above the water table spaces between sediment particles and cracks in rocks Underground caverns that store water

  10. 9. Which of the following phrases best describes these resources: wind, sunlight, and trees Nonrenewable resources Energy sources Renewable resources Infinite resources

  11. 10. The main source of energy for ecosystems is: The Sun Water Oxygen nitrogen
