 The branch of science concerned with the processes and phenomena of the atmosphere,

especially as a means of forecasting the weather.

 Describes the average conditions expected at a specific place at a given time.

 The branch of science that deals with the physical and biological properties and phenomena of
the sea.
 Describes the atmospheric conditions at a specific place at a specific point in time.

 The layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth’s gravity.

 The term " " typically refers to the electromagnetic waves that the sun emits, including
infrared light, visible light, and ultraviolet light.
 Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level.
 It is the measurement of the degree through which an object can be observed over a certain
distance.
 Instrument use for measuring temperature.
 It is the amount of water vapor that is present in the atmosphere at any specific time.
 It refers to the movement of air in the Earth's atmosphere
 Air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas, and the greater the difference in
pressure, the stronger the wind.
 What is the instrument used to measure wind speed?
 What is the instrument used to measure wind direction?
 It is the wind experienced by an observer in motion and is the relative velocity of the wind
in relation to the observer.
 A measurement of the amount of kinetic energy present in the air, which manifests itself
physically through the experience of heat or cold.
 It is the result of the pressure created by the weight of the air in the Earth's atmosphere.
 Instrument use for measuring atmospheric pressure.
 The scales typically used to measure temperature.
 The uppermost region of Earth's atmosphere as it gradually fades into the vacuum of space.
 It is also known as depressions or storms, are areas of low atmospheric pressure where air rises
and cools, leading to cloud formation and precipitation.
 These are large-scale atmospheric conditions that are characterized by particular weather patterns
and conditions, such as temperature, wind, pressure, and precipitation.
 This is known as the lower atmosphere almost all weather occurs in this region.
 Instrument use for measuring wind speed.
 What is the boundary between two different air masses, such as a warm air mass and a cold air
mass.
 This is the process by which plants release water vapor into the air through their leaves.
 These clouds typically form at the ground level up to an altitude of about 6,000 feet in the
sky.
 These are flat, featureless clouds that form in layers close to the ground or sea surface.
 These are white or gray clouds that often appear as rounded masses or patches.
 An aerosol consisting of a visible mass of miniature liquid droplets, frozen crystals, or other
particles suspended in the atmosphere of a planetary body or similar space.
 The process by which water droplets or ice crystals in the atmosphere fall to the ground.
 This occurs during thunderstorms when strong updrafts lift water droplets high into the
atmosphere where they freeze, then fall to the ground as hailstones.
 This is the most common type of precipitation and occurs when water droplets fall from clouds
and reach the ground.
 This occurs when snowflakes partially melt as they fall through a layer of warm air, then
refreeze before reaching the ground.
 It is the measurement of the degree through which an object can be observed over a certain
distance.
 A formation of fog that forms when warm, moist air moves over a cool surface, causing the air
to cool and the moisture to condense into fog.
 A type of air pollution that reduces visibility and creates a whitish or bluish-gray
appearance in the air.
 A type of low-lying cloud that forms when water vapor in the air condenses into tiny water
droplets, resulting in reduced visibility on the ground.
 Also known as steam fog, forms when cold air moves over a warm water surface, such as a lake
or river.
 This method of estimating visibility involves using weather instruments such as
barometers, hygrometers, and thermometers to measure atmospheric conditions.
 This formation of fog forms when warm, moist air is forced to rise over a cooler surface, such
as a hill or mountain.
 It refers to areas in the Earth's atmosphere where the air pressure is different from the
surrounding areas.
 These systems are associated with sinking air, which leads to clear skies, dry conditions, and
stable weather.
 Who first described Ferrel Cell in the 19th century.
 A small-scale wind system that occur over relatively small areas, such as cities, valleys, and
mountain slopes.
 It is a larger-scale wind system that occur over broader regions, often driven by large- scale
atmospheric circulation patterns, such as the global wind belts or regional pressure systems.
 A theoretical concept used in meteorology to describe the motion of air in the
atmosphere.
 A phenomenon that describes the deflection of objects, including air and water, that are moving
on the surface of the rotating Earth.
 It is a principle in meteorology that describes the relationship between wind direction and air
pressure.
 The process by which a cyclone or low-pressure system forms and intensifies.
