Category 1--$200
True or false: Oceans make temperatures on land less extreme?
What is…….false - it makes them MORE extreme!
Category 1--$400
Name the local winds.
What are…….sea breezes and land breezes.
Category 1--$600
Why do sea breezes occur?
What is…….because the air over the land heats up more quickly so the air over the water blow in.
Category 1--$800
What are all winds caused by?
What is…….differencies in air pressure
Category 1--$1000
What produces global winds?
What is…….the movement of air between the equator and the poles
(the Coriolis Effect)
Category 2--$200
Name the three types of heat transfer.
What are…….radiation, convection, and conduction.
Category 2--$400
Define conduction.
What is…….the direct transfer of heat from one substance to another that is touching
Category 2--$600
Give an example of convection in your daily life.
What is…….a house heated by a furnace.
Category 2--$800
Explain what creates a land breeze.
What is…….during the night, the air over the land is cooler than the land over the ocean, so the cooler air blows out toward the sea.
Category 2--$1000
Contrast the three ways in which heat is transferred.
What are…….conduction is touching, convection is through currents, and radiation is through empty space.

What measures air temperature?
What is…….a thermometer
Category 3--$400
What causes most of the heating of the troposphere?.
What is…….convection
Daily Double!!
Category 3--$600
Define Coriolis Effect..
