Upcoming Quiz

There will be a quiz on Monday. It will include all the notes we've discussed on air pressure, winds, and ocean currents. Please see me if you need additional tutoring. As always, the links we used in class are to your right. Please check them out. To see the global winds and ocean currents go to the Earth Visualizations site, hit chapter 24, then the first link for surface currents in the ocean. I'm here to help in any way I can.

Air Pressure and Wind

Now that we know the Earth receives energy unequally from the Sun, lets see how it affects air pressure. Check out the links to the right to see how unequal heating can cause the air pressure to change and create winds at both the local and global levels.
