1. Class 12
Temperature, EMR, Insolation

2.  Matter = “Stuff”
 All matter is made of atoms
 Atoms combine to form molecules
 Energy acts upon, and changes matter

3.  “Energy is neither created nor destroyed”
 It just changes form
 Kinetic Energy is a form of energy.
 Kinetic Energy = movement energy =
temperature

4.  The average kinetic energy of the molecules
of the substance

12.  Incoming Solar Radiation
 Constant at top of atmosphere (when
averaged annually)
 ~1400 watts/m2

38.  Latent Heat
 Sensible Heat

49. On Temperature

50. Water has a moderating effect on
temperature!

61. Portland, Oregon

64.  USGS

66.  Carbon Dioxide
 Methane
 Water Vapor

74. Depends upon
 % of cloud cover
 Cloud type
 Cloud height
 Thickness (water content + density)

75. Examine:
 Incoming shortwave radiation
 Vs.
 Outgoing longwave radiation
