Worksheet 3: Earth's Climate System II

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

A diagram of a mountain range and the prevailing winds is shown at the top of the page. Meteorology pupils describe the weather conditions at different points on the diagram. They explain the El Nino effect and why evaporation and transpiration rates differ between north and south facing slopes. Don't let the textbook page references prevent you from using this resource; the critical-thinking exercises on it are beneficial.
