Slide 2 States of Water Solid LiquidGas Slide 3 When a sample of water changes from a solid to a liquid, how much does the mass change? A. Mass is greater in the solid state than it is in the liquid state B. Mass is great in the liquid state than it is in the solid state C. Mass is equal in the solid and liquid states. Slide 4 Law of Conservation of Mass The law of conservation of matter means that matter is not lost during a change in the state of water. Therefore, mass is not lost during a change in the state of water. Slide 5 Where Can Water be Found? Hydrosphere: All the water on or beneath Earth's surface Slide 6 Biosphere: All the living things on Earth and their environments Where Can Water be Found? Slide 7 Geosphere: The solid part of Earth including all rocks and mineral Where Can Water be Found? Slide 8 Water Cycle: the movement and storage of water between Earth's atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere Where Can Water be Found? Slide 9 Properties of Water Molecule The smallest particle of a substance that retains the chemical and physical properties of the substance and is composed of two or more atoms Billions and Billions of water molecules come together to form bodies of water such as rivers and lakes.

Slide 16 Slide 17 The Atmosphere A protective layer of gases that surrounds the Earth like an envelop How do you think the atmosphere protects the biosphere, geosphere, and water cycle? Slide 18 Composition of the Atmosphere Slide 19 Structure of the Atmosphere The effects of gravity, solar radiation, and the properties of the gases cause the atmosphere to be layered. These layers are ordered based on their temperature and density Slide 20 Exosphere Slide 21 Thermosphere Slide 22 Mesosphere Slide 23 Stratosphere Slide 24 Troposphere Slide 25 Atmospheric Pressure Air pressure is the force exerted on you by the weight of tiny particles of air (air molecules). Why role does gravity play? How does altitude affect air pressure? Slide 26 Tools for Measuring Air Pressure Barometer - Liquid mercury inside a long glass tube moves up and down based on the force of the atmosphere on the liquid. What happens to the weather and temperature as the barometric pressure increases or decreases? Slide 27 Air Pressure Lab Slide 28 Earths Winds Slide 29 Wind Energy What can wind be used for? What are some advantages and disadvantages of wind energy? Slide 30 Slide 31 2. Click on the S1 Climate and Meteorology 02: The Atmosphere 1. Go to the Assessments tab: Slide 32 3.

Slide 35 Collecting Weather Data MethodType of DataImage ThermometerTemperature BarometerAir Pressure HygrometerHumidity Anemometer and Wind Vane Wind Speed and Direction Cloud Type and CoverTypes of Clouds and % coverage Rain gaugeAmount of Precipitation Slide 36 Weather Maps What can you infer about the weather on March 11, 2010, compared with Floridas expected climate in March? Was it warmer or colder than usual? Hint: Compare the data on Map 1 with the data on Map 2 and Map 3. On March 11, 2010, how many of Floridas temperature readings for the daily high temperature were above average? Hint: Compare the top numbers in Map 1 with the climate data for the mean daily maximum temperatures for Florida in Map 2. Slide 37 Weather Records Weather data can be collected to make climate maps. Predicting future climate events, such as droughts, can be easier. Collecting weather records can help scientists see patterns in the weather. Slide 38 Climate Zones A climate zone is an area on Earth with similar temperature and precipitation patterns. Climate Zones affect the Biosphere There are three types of zones Tropical Temperate Polar Temperate Polar Slide 39 Tropical Climate Zones TypeAnnual Precipitation DescriptionExamples of life Tropical Rain Forest HighLush, dense, high diversity Monkeys, tree frogs, parrots, orchids, mahogany trees DesertsLowDry soil conditionsCactus, small bushes, lizards, small rodents, camels SavannaAlternating highs and lows Wet and dry seasons Small shrubs, tall grasses, lions, giraffes, elephants Slide 40 Temperate Climate Zones Grasslands Temperate Forests Chaparral TypeAnnual Precipitation DescriptionExamples of life GrasslandsVariableWet and dry seasons Prairie grasses, wildflowers, small rodents, bison, foxes Temperate Forest SufficientRelatively consistent amount of water Deer, bear, migrating birds, deciduous trees ChaparralLowVery hot and dryThick leaves, small shrubs, coyotes, alligators, cattle, large birds Slide 41 Polar Climate Zones Taiga Tundra TypeAnnual Precipitation DescriptionExamples of life TaigaForm of snowMild summers, long cold winters Pine trees, wolves, moose, and elk TundraLowColder than Taiga, ground permanently frozen Moss, small flowers, polar bears, caribou, arctic foxes Slide 42 Weathering in the Geosphere Slide 43 2.
