Slide 1 - Tekstslide

What is the plan for today?

Repeat: TEMPERATURE FACTORS

START: EL NIÑO

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

TEMPERATURE
FACTORS
  1. You can name the 6 temperature factors (G37).
  2. For each temperature factor you can explain how it influences temperature in a certain place (G38, G42, G43, G44, G45, G46).















Slide 3 - Tekstslide

TEMPERATURE FACTORS
Why is it warm or cold somewhere?

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

1. Latitude
The closer you are to the equator, the warmer it is.

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

2. Altitude
The higher, the colder.

Slide 6 - Tekstslide

3. Land or sea

  • Land heats up and cools down quicker than water.
  • Land and water influence the temperature of the air above it.


Slide 7 - Tekstslide

4.Onshore/
offshore wind

  • This factor only applies to places close to the sea.
  • Onshore wind moderates temperature (cool summers, mild winters), while offshore winds cause bigger temperature differences.


Slide 8 - Tekstslide

5. Ocean currents
Warm current -> warmer air
Cold current -> colder air

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

6. Location of 
    mountain
    ranges
Mountain ranges can block prevailing winds, so they can be a dividing line between 2 climates.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

TODAY'S GOALS
  1. You can describe 3 changes that happen during a El Niño event.
  2. You can name at least 4 consequences of El Niño for the north of Chile.
  3. You can explain why Chile’s seasons are opposite of Dutch seasons (GG 35).


Slide 12 - Tekstslide

EL NIÑO

Climatic phenomenon that heats sea water
in the central and eastern Pacific.

Once every three to seven years, el Niño lasts about six months and the peak is often around Christmas.
