1.explain the difference between weather and climate (L1) 2.describe what makes up the atmosphere and its structure (L2) 3.summarize the history of the study of the atmosphere (L1) 4.explain how the basic forms of energy contribute to our daily weather (L2) 5.describe how the exchange of energy regulates the Earth`s temperature (the so-called greenhouse effect), thereby the seasons (L2) 6.describe how the evaporation and condensation of water impacts the atmosphere (L3; L4) 7.explain how the vertical motion of air determines how and where clouds form and whether those clouds produce rain/snow (L5; L6) 8.describe what causes air molecules to move and explain what that has to do with global wind patterns (L7; L8; L9) 9.describe how the different regions of the atmosphere form and how the regions interact to produce our weather (L10; L11; L13) 10.explain how patterns of differences and interactions allow us to predict the weather (L14) 11.explain how thunderstorms and tornadoes originate, mature, and then die out (L12) 12.explain what causes the climate to vary naturally and how human activity is likely changing the climate (L15). 1Class overview 2 Introduction to Weather and Climate 3 Heat and energy 4 Composition, structure, and hydrological cycle 5 Humidity, condensation, and clouds 6 Stability and cloud formation/development 7 Precipitation (both rain and snow) 8 Air pressure and winds 9 Mid-term exam.; No class 10 Local winds 11 Global circulation systems 12 Air masses and frontal systems 13 Mid-latitude cyclones 14 Storms (thunder, tornado, and squall line) 15 Tropical cyclones 16 Weather forecasting 17 Air pollution and climate change 18 Final exam.; No class |

Textbook: Meteorology Today: An Introduction to Weather, Climate, and the Environment. 8th edition, C. D. Ahrens; 2007, ISBN: 978-0-495-10581-7 [高立; NTD980 after discount] References: 1. Meteorology Today: An Introduction to Weather, Climate, and the Environment, 7th Ed., C. D. Ahrens, 2003. (Note: the 8th edition of the `Core` version of Meteorology Today is exactly the same as the 7th edition of the standard version except it doesn`t include chapters 17-19. Either one will work for this course) 2. See the additional reading material listed in Page R-1-to-2 of our textbook. |
