Catastrophic Events

Students begin their investigations of heat and the natural processes that underlie storms.  They then relate their observations of air movement in the lab to weather fronts and the formation of winds.  They apply their observations to weather maps and draw conclusions about the conditions under which clouds and storms form and move.  They also plot major ocean currents to determine their influence on global weather patterns.
