What is the source of energy that drives the water cycle?
Sun (Solar Energy)
What stage of the water cycle is when it moves through the atmosphere?
Condensation
Cold Front
Cold Front
Warm Front
High Pressure
Low Pressure
Thermometer
Device to measure temperature
Anemometer
A device used for measuring wind speed
Wind Vane
An instrument for showing the direction of the wind
Barometer
Scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure
Rain Gauge
An instrument used to gather and measure the amount of precipitation over a set period of time
Warm moist air masses
Form over tropical water
Cool moist air masses
Form over polar water
Warm dry air masses
Form overland near the equator
Fronts
Measure temperature and air pressure, since the temperature will change after a front passes and usually there is a change in air pressure
Stationary Fronts
Don't change the weather , they just stay the same
Meterologist
A scientist that studies weather
Rain
Typically will make the temperature fall
Weather
Changes in temperature or precipitation in a short amount of time (hours or days)
