MODELING EARTH’S ATMOSPHERIC

Teacher Sheet 1. CRITICAL THINKING ACTIVITY: MODELING EARTH'S ATMOSPHERIC . LAYERS. OBJECTIVE: Students will: make a model of Earth's ATMOSPHERIC layers;. graph where aircraft, satellites, and spacecraft operate;. interpret which objects operate in which layers of the atmosphere infer conclusions about why the objects operate where they do in the ATMOSPHERIC layers. MATERIALS: 3 square foot pieces of butcher/chart paper Sheets of graphics for ATMOSPHERIC layers Colored pencils or markers Metric ruler Glue PROCEDURE: 1. Divide class into groups of 2-3 students. 2. Post the instructions below on the board or chart paper for students to refer to or hand out copies.

Draw the ozone layer. This is not a main layer of the atmosphere, but plays an important role in how it works. This is also where the ozone is found, which absorbs ultraviolet radiation. The ozone is between the stratosphere and the mesosphere. Its symbol is 0 3 because it is made of three oxygen atoms.

ability to control temperature. The condition of the body's temperature is the information fed back to the brain, which is the controller. If the temperature is high, the body sweats in order to cool down. Since the process of sweating is done to stop the temperature change, this is a negative feedback.

2 Student Sheet 2 Cooling things by conduction works the same way as warming. This time, a hot metal spoon is put in room-temperature water. The faster-moving atoms in the spoon contact the slower-moving molecules in the water. The atoms in the spoon transfer some of their energy to the molecules in the water. The spoon will get

TEACHER BACKGROUND: SPECIFICS OF HEAT TRANSFER

gml.noaa.gov

In a new scenario, a metal can containing hot water is placed in a Styrofoam cup containing cold water. Heat is transferred from the hot water to the cold water until both samples have the same temperature. The transfer of heat from the hot water through the metal can to the cold water is referred to as conduction.

means cooler summers and milder winters. Slow changes in the Earth’s orbit lead to small but climatically important changes in the strength of the seasons over tens of thousands of years. Climate feedbacks amplify these small changes, thereby producing ice ages. Solar variations - The Sun is the source of energy for the Earth’s climate system.

corals display different sensitivities to changes in aragΩ and SST [Reynaud et al., 2003]. Considering that both these environmental parameters are likely to change considerably in the future, additional experiments on a variety of differing coral species will be crucial to obtain a better understanding of future coral reef stability.

There are also a number of entirely human-made greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as sulphur hexafluoride (SF 6), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs). These gases accumulate in the atmosphere. Significant increases in concentrations of CO 2 ...
