Study Notes
Weather vs. Climate
- Weather: The state of the atmosphere at a specific time and place. It can change quickly.
- Climate: A pattern of weather over a long period in a large region.
Climate Elements
- Wind: Air in motion, driven by the sun's heat. (Creates thermal gradients and transports energy)
- Humidity: Amount of water vapor in the air, related to temperature. (Higher temperatures hold more moisture). Evaporated water forms water vapor.
- Precipitation: Water falling from the atmosphere (rain, snow, hail). Factors impacting distribution include latitude, altitude, and continentality.
- Temperature: Measure of air's warmth. (Related to latitude, altitude, and continentality.) Equator has higher temperatures than polar regions.
- Atmospheric Pressure: Force exerted by the air. (Altitude and temperature affect the pressure).
Wind
- Wind Direction: Measured with a wind vane (N, S, E, W).
- Wind Speed: Measured with an anemometer (km/h).
- Wind Origin: Sun's heat warming the Earth unevenly.
- Wind Circulation: Transports heat from warmer to cooler areas.
Humidity
- Humidity: Amount of water vapor in the air. Warm air holds more moisture than cold air.
- Measurement: Measured by a hygrometer.
- Condensation: When warm, moist air cools, it releases water vapor, forming clouds or precipitation.
Precipitation
- Precipitation: Water falling from the atmosphere (rain, snow, hail).
- Distribution: Uneven due to latitude, altitude, and continentality.
- Measurement: Rainfall measured by a rain gauge (L/m²).
Temperature
- Latitude: The equator receives more direct sunlight and has higher temperatures.
- Altitude: Temperature generally decreases with increasing altitude.
- Continental Effect: Land areas experience greater temperature variations than water bodies.
- Measurements: Taken using thermometers (°C).
Atmospheric Pressure
- Pressure: Weight of air pressing down on the Earth's surface.
- High Pressure: Associated with stable weather.
- Low Pressure: Associated with stormy weather.
- Measurement: Measured by a barometer (hPa, millibars).
- Factors: Altitude, temperature, and humidity affect pressure.
Climate Zones
- Tropical Zones: High temperatures, little seasonality. Located near the equator.
- Temperate Zones: Moderate temperatures, four seasons. Between tropical and polar regions.
- Polar Zones: Low temperatures, minimal seasonality. Located near the poles.
Climate Types
- Categorized based on temperature and precipitation patterns.
- Examples: Tropical, Temperate, Polar, are further subdivided and specified.
