Extractions: Mark Twain Last updated July 2008 - this page now ARCHIVED LESSON RESOURCES WEBLINKS Oh dear, this is where things start getting serious on your A2 course. Meteorology can be seriously hard stuff to get your head round. Although there's less of a need to be able to visualise the atmosphere in its myriad levels of detail now with the A2, it's still a challenging topic. The students still need to reconcile the local 'microclimate' scale with the globe-encircling Rossby Waves and the tri-cellular model. The fact that there are processes going on which cannot be seen tends to create problems. Despite this, the last few years have seen at least one of our students aiming for a career in this direction - it must be the inspirational teaching. Also a previous student recently won a prestigious prize for his work on aircraft contrails and global warming. Start by keeping an eye on the weather forecast, and try to see how the weather changes according to reasonably predictable patterns, depending on the pressure situation, and the relative position of High and Low pressure systems. Note that when fronts pass over the country it tends to rain on those days, whereas High pressure brings drier settled conditions. Unless you get anticyclonic gloom of course. Go HERE for information on the storms of October 2002, which could be a good case study of the effect of a low pressure system on human activity.

Visits to the Bureau of Meteorology The Melbourne exhibition area at 150 Lonsdale Street is now closed due to works associated with the Bureau's move to 700 Collins Street. A new exhibition area in the Docklands building is planned, but no starting date has been decided. However, if you live in regional or rural Australia, there may be a Bureau office nearby. Our offices welcome school visits, subject to availability of staff and operational requirements. Look for your local office in the telephone book under 'Bureau of Meteorology', or contact the Bureau Regional Office in your state.
Weather Detective - An Educator's Reference Desk Lesson Plan The students will be observing the weather each day for one week and recording their observations in a chart. The students will be integrating information learned in English by http://www.eduref.org/Virtual/Lessons/Science/Meteorology/MET0027.html
Extractions: Date: October 31, 1996 Grade Level(s): Subject(s): Description: This is an introductory lesson to a second grade weather unit. Basically what the students will be doing is observing the weather each day for one week and recording their observations in a chart. The students will be integrating information learned in English by using adjectives in their descriptions. After the students have collected data for a week, in cooperative groups, they will predict the weather for the next week. The teacher will show the students guides or weather reports from past years for that particular week in order to guide them in a direction of an accurate prediction. Goal: The students will understand how observational skills can help them evaluate the weather. Objectives: 1. The students will record 5 daily observations in their observation charts for 5 days. 2. The students will learn to read a thermometer and record the daily temperature two times each day in their observation chart for five days.
Extractions: Meteorology is the science that studies the changes that happen in the atmosphere. Meteorology is extremely important as it allows people to be able to predict and forecast the weather. Meteorologists are scientists that study meteorology. They depend on thousands of weather stations, which are placed all over the world on land and at sea. Measurements are taken at all the stations, and then are sent to weather centers so that the information can be studied and analyzed. Continued...

Extractions: Climate Lesson Plan This lesson explains what climate is and why it's related to weather. It explains how weather is a series of atmospheric phenomenon and climate is a record of the various phenomenons. The Climate lesson also looks at seven different regional climates in the continental United States. Each climate is given it's own page discussing its location and characteristics.
Meteorology (Weather): Weather Control, Weather Modification, Weather Control weather modification, weather control, project stormfury Hello Stan, The subject of weather modification was studied extensively in the 1960 s and early seventies by the US http://en.allexperts.com/q/Meteorology-Weather-668/Weather-Control.htm
Extractions: Hey, how are you doing? I've been hearing a lot about "controlling the weather" lately on TV, in books, and on the internet. I've heard of cloud seeding to make a relatively small area more suitable for agriculture or to cause a developing hurricane to rain out most of its contents, so as to lessen its effect before it reaches the coast, but is that it I mean is there more we can do? Its sounds very interesting, and I have a HUGE love of technology and knowledge, so the subject naturally piqued my interest. Could you tell me more? Even if its just theoretical, I want to know about it! Thanks! Hello Stan, The subject of weather modification was studied extensively in the 1960's and early seventies by the US government and others as "Project Stormfury". It was determined to be unfeasible an not cost effective not to mention the political consequences of altering a region's weather. Barring any new breakthroughs by a private organization the issue is closed for now.
