Tennessee Academic Standards for Science: Explain how relationships between the movement and interactions of air masses, high- and low-pressure systems, and frontal boundaries result in weather conditions and severe storms.
In this unit, students build on their scientific knowledge about matter, energy, and heat transfer to explore science phenomena related to weather and climate. They investigate how the sun powers the global water cycle, which in turn has very local impacts that affect the phenomena of regional climates around the world. This page showcases all the parts of this lesson.
