How is the weather today where you live?
Is it sunny, cloudy, or rainy? What’s the
climate like over longer periods of time?

When we describe weather over a long
period of time, we call it the climate.

When we’re analyzing an increase or
decrease in the temperature of a location
over time, we are analyzing its climate.

Let’s think about two coastal cities, like
Seattle and Daytona Beach.

Although both lie along the ocean, they
experience very different climates.

Why do these two coastal cities have such
different climates and weather patterns?
Let’s look at the effects of air moving over
the ocean and the currents.

The climate of a coastal area tends to
remain more stable than that of an inland
area.
<image>

Water has an important property called
high heat capacity. This means it can
absorb heat quickly and hold onto that
heat.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/thermometer-sunwater-reflection-501608/
Water near the ocean’s surface has a
higher heat capacity than land, because it
absorbs more energy from the sun than
soil does.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/fiji-beach-sandpalm-trees-tropics-293826/
The ocean keeps this temperature in a
steady range, and causes coastal areas to
have a narrow daily range and seasonal
climate.
Question B
Stem: What is the property of water that allows it to absorb heat quickly and hold onto it?
A. Boiling capacity
B. Evaporation
C. Heat capacity
D. Vapor

All of Earth’s weather happens in the layer
of the atmosphere called the troposphere.
In the troposphere, though, the air isn’t all
the same.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/clouds-skyparadise-fresh-air-474747/
Sometimes we get spots of moving air
called air masses, which are a bit different
from the rest of the air around it.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/air-atmosphereblue-clear-climate-2716/
Air masses are large in size, and the same
throughout. They travel across the
atmosphere as a single unit.

An air mass can form over an ocean and
carry the ocean’s conditions along with it
when it moves.

If it formed over a cool body of water, it’ll
bring cool temperatures when it moves to
coastal land like in Seattle!
Question C
Stem: If an air mass forms over a cool ocean, what would the temperature on coastal
land feel like?
Answer Choices:
A. Warm
B. Cool
C. Hot
D. No change

The water in the ocean is always moving.
Think of it as a giant conveyor belt!
<image>
http://www.morguefile.com/archive/display
/925415
When areas near the equator get direct
sunlight, they don’t get hotter and hotter.
The conveyor belt of the ocean moves the
heat across the Earth.
<image>
http://www.morguefile.com/archive/display

This conveyor belt is known as ocean
currents, and they form because of wind
patterns across the Earth.

VL_-_US_Jet_Stream_2012-03-02.png
Very strong and narrow winds, called the
jet stream, act almost like rivers of wind,
pushing around cold and warm air. The jet
stream causes big weather changes.
Question D
Stem: What do we call very strong and narrow wind streams that affect the weather?
Answer Choices:
A. Ocean currents
B. Air pockets
C. Jet stream
D. Air masses

The climate of an area is the typical
weather of that region over a period of
time.

Although the weather might change from
day to day, the climate tells us what is
happening over a long period of time.

The climate of coastal land is affected by
ocean water temperatures, and by air
masses moving above the ocean.
<image>
http://www.morguefile.com/archive/display
/6832
This means that if a city is located along
the coast but the ocean waters are cold,
the weather at the beach there isn’t going
to be sunny and warm!
Question E
Stem: What affects the climate of land along the coast?
Answer Choices:
A. Ocean water temperature
B. Ocean water movement
C. Air moving above the ocean
D. All of the above

Coastal areas tend to have less change in
climate and daily weather patterns than
inland areas.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/thermometer-sunwater-reflection-501608/
Ocean waters have a higher heat capacity
than soil, which means they absorb the
energy from the sun more than the land
does.
<image>
http://pixabay.com/en/swimming-poolblue-water-beautiful-317449/
In fact, any water has this capacity, which
means it can absorb heat quickly and hold
onto it. That’s why a pool stays warm in
the summer.
<image>
Because of this property, ocean waters
close to coastal areas don’t vary much. It’s
what keeps the climate steady.

The weather that we experience occurs in
the first layer of the atmosphere, the
troposphere.

Although the weather is in the same layer,
the air isn’t all the same. Some air moves
differently than the rest.
This moving air unit called an air mass
travels through the atmosphere as a single
unit. It is very large in size.
If it forms over an ocean, it brings with it
the characteristics of the ocean. So if the
ocean is warm, it will bring along warm
weather!
Question G
Stem: What is a large, moving unit of air that is the same throughout, and travels through
the atmosphere as a single unit?
Answer Choices:
Answer Choices:
A. Ozone
B. Cloud
C. Water vapor
D. Air mass

Imagine what oceans look like, can you
picture the waves? The water is always
moving.
<image>
Because the water never stops moving,
http://pixabay.com/en/sunset-ocean-water- even areas that get direct sunlight, like the
waves-tropical-379109/
equator, don’t keep heating. The warm
water moves around.
<image>
http://www.morguefile.com/archive/display

The way water moves around the Earth is
called the ocean currents. Wind patterns
are one of the things that contribute to
creating currents.
< image>
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NN
VL_-_US_Jet_Stream_2012-03-02.png
A special type of wind, called the jet
stream, creates much of our weather. Jet
streams are like rivers of wind that move
around warm and cold air.
Question H
Stem: What is one factor that creates the ocean currents?
Answer Choices:
A. Waves
B. Underground rivers
C. Clouds
D. Wind patterns
