Standard:S6E4: The student will understand how the distribution of land and oceans affects climate and weather.
Understanding:Climate and weather measure atmospheric
conditions.
The five factors that affect climate are latitude, prevailing winds, closeness to water, closeness to
mountains, and ocean currents.
Essential Questions:What are some characteristics of Earth’s atmosphere?
How does the Sun interact with Earth to produce weather and climate?
How do oceans, and other large bodies of water, affect the weather and climate of coastal areas?
Why do different parts of the world have different climates?

If the wind carries warm air, then they may carry moisture.
If the wind carries cold air, then they will probably be dry.
If the wind blows over a lot of land, then it will probably be dry.
If the wind blows over a lot of water, then it will probably carry moisture.

South Georgia is mostly flat. This allows air masses to move across the state very easily.
Imagine what would happen to the climate of Hall County if we had high mountains in south Georgia.
Complete a multi-flow map showing what you think would happen to our amount of precipitation, the winds we get, and our temperature.
