Hurricanes
This review will guide you through an adaptive, research-backed study session. As you answer questions, we will actively assess your current understanding of the material. Questions will continue to be drawn until you have demonstrated mastery of each learning objective.
Reviews are graded based on completion. You will receive full credit for achieving 100% mastery or answering all questions.
Learning objectives for this review:
- Students analyze hurricane data to identify patterns in frequency of hurricanes in different regions during different seasons, then make connections to patterns in air surface temperature and sea surface temperature in different regions during different seasons.
- Students explain patterns of hurricane location and seasons using concepts from the causal mechanism for hurricanes.
- Students analyze a text to explain how the changes in global temperatures cause precipitation levels to change during storm events
- Students develop a model based on evidence to illustrate cause and effect relationships during hurricane formation, in order to make predictions about how global temperature increase will affect the frequency and intensity of hurricanes.
