The Hadean Era Life first appeared on Earth during this era. The Archaean Era During this era oxygen began to build up in the atmosphere and the first animals appeared. The Proterozoic Era This era is known for the appearance of the first plants on Earth. The Mesozoic Era During this era humans appeared and a major ice age occurred. The Cenozoic Era These are the six factors affecting climate. Latitude, relief and elevation, continental and maritime environments, ocean currents, air masses and prevailing winds This causes a moderating effect to the nearby climate. Bodies of water Landlocked areas receive this type of climate. Wide temperature ranges This factor in climate change is closely associated to the equator. Latitude This continuous movement of wind moves air masses from west to east across Canada. Prevailing Wind These two climate factors are important in determining the length of a growing season. Precipitation and Heat This province is known for its very long growing season. British Columbia These two climate factors determine the length of growing season. Latitude and continental and maritime environments. Found in the far north and known as an arctic desert vegetation region. The Tundra These plants are known to grow in the Tundra region. Moss, Lichen, small flowers and shrubs Term used to explain daily temperature and precipitation conditions of an area. Weather Long term trends in temperature and precipitation is known as. Climate When an air mass hits this type of barrier it cools and condenses. Mountain Adding all monthly temperatures of a region and dividing it by 12 gives you this stat. Average Temperature The phenomenon that occurs when the Pacific ocean warms up near South America causing major climate changes around the world. “El Nino” These are the layers of the Earth. The Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, Inner Core The inner core is primarily made of this material Thick Solid Iron Pangaea occurred this many years ago. 300 Million Years Ago Continents began to break away 200 million years ago creating this super continent. Pangaea Most of the Earth’s internal heat comes from this part of the Earth’s structure. The Mantle Make your wager Term used to explain the land over the point of rupture during an earthquake.
