Global Warming?

1. Global warming is the increase in average temperatures of Earth and the atmosphere due in part to increased carbon dioxide levels.

2. Yes I do because the information proves it true.

3. Temperature increase, polar ice caps melt, and rise in Carbon Dioxide.

4. The temperature change occurs in any generation, The IPCC hasn't proven it yet, and climate change has been more rapid in the past.

Condensation?


Several examples of condensation are: Your breath on a glass, a Dr.Pepper fresh out of the refridgerator, dew on the grass in the morning, the ring left on the table after you pick up a glass of ice water, or seeing your breath on a cold day.

Hurricane Katrina! (Dun Dun Dun)


I chose Hurricane Katrina, which was a category 5 at its strongest and once it made landfall it was a category 3. It started just south of the Bahamas where it was a category 1, it was a category 3 when it was at the Florida Keys, and a category 5 when it made just before land, and at landfall a category 3. It killed approximately 1,200 people and cost $75 billion dollar in the Mississippi area and New Orleans area.

AIR MASSES?

The 4 air masses are Continental- Dry, Marintine- Wet, Tropical- Warm, and Polar- Cold. Warm air masses bring the most hurricanes. Contenintal air masses are most likely to bring a drought because they are extremely dry. Contenintal polar is most likely to bring a lake-effect snowstorm. Arctic and Highland are two other air masses. Highland is elevated and arctic is icey.

Greenhouse Effect

IR radition is the abreviation for Infrared Radition. The three main greenhouse gases are methane, water, and carbon dioxide. The greenhouse effect is terrible because it melts the ice caps, and takes the homes of poor little polar bears. We All Need Homes! :(

The Atlantic Ocean gives us great resources such as fish, water, activities, travel, and other seafood.

Blog #4


Scientist can tell the age of a tree by its rings. Each of the rings represents a different time period. So all it would be was counting the rings. This is useful for scientist when they are finding the age of the trees. This is an example of relative dating because it can tell how old in years a tree is, maybe not days, or weeks, but definitely years.
