| Central Question: What correlation is there between climate, weather, and life? Why will a climate region provide such a stark contrast in life it is able to support? Guiding Thought Question: Read the description of climate dynamics in the article An Introduction to Climate Systems (Princeton Press) and explain why climate dynamics are such an important topic of study right now, and the types of things that are studied as part of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, and lithosphere (land surface). Today's Learning Objective: Students will examine the differences between weather and climate, and the implications for the distribution of life on the earth's surface. Students will be able to explain the distribution of climate systems around the planet's surface and the associated indicators that accompany those regions. |  |

Climate is different in various locations which ultimately affects the environment and how living things are able to survive. Polar bears are adapted to live in cold environments because of their thick fur to keep them warm. However with climate change, the polar bears' are at risk because it's beginning to be too hot for them and with ice caps melting, polar bears get too tired to swim.

Climate is the weather and environment. So the organisms that lives in climate have to adapt live in the climate. Leave a Reply. |
