Climate is the weather in an area over a very short period of time.

Choose all that apply to El Nino.

When exploring temperature and energy in the SIM, you increased the temperature by removing energy.

When exploring temperature and energy in the SIM, you decreased the temperature by removing energy.

An El Nino affects only the people in the United States.

Energy is the ability to do work, make things move, or make a change.

El Nino events occur every two to _____________ years.

In the "Heating Experiment," you learned that ____________________________________________.

When gathering evidence with the SIM, the air temperature increased after 1 minute on the surface.

El Nino is not a storm, but a weather phenomenon.

One example of heat transfer is through radiation of the Sun's energy.

The sun's energy is transferred to Earth's surface b which type of energy transfer?

Through the heat transfer of convection, hot air becomes less dense and rises and cooler air becomes more dense and sinks.

Important latitude line/lines is/are _______________________.

Incoming energy from the sun is the strongest ____________________________.

Global air temperature is the coldest at the Tropic of Cancer.

One reason different locations have different air temperatures is because of the location of  the latitude.

The farther away from the equator, the warmer the air temperature gets.

The higher/greater the angle of the sun's rays, the more direct  the energy will reach Earth's surface.

Dark colors on Earth's surface reflect the sun's energy and light colors absorb the sun's energy.

In the Gizmo "Heat Absorption," when adding a glass cover to simulate a greenhouse, all materials heated up faster and warmer.
