CONVECTIONtransfer of heat by the movement of warmed matter; hot air/water
rises, cool air/water sinks
Hot Air is Less Dense! (so it rises)
What Can Convection Do?
• Turn to your partner and answer the question: “What is wind?”
“What causes the wind to blow?”• Together, select the explanation you both
think is the most accurate. • Share with the class!
CONVECTIONMoves air in the atmosphere!
CONVECTIONWind over the shore changes
direction because of
EARTH’S UNEVEN
WARMING & COOLING!
BrainPop
What is wind?
What is wind?Wind is air in motion.
How is wind made?It is produced by the uneven heating of the earth’s surface by the sun.
What causes the wind to blow?
1. As the sun warms the Earth's surface, the atmosphere warms too.
2. Some parts of the Earth receive direct rays from the sun all year and are always warm.
3. Other places receive indirect rays, so the climate is colder.
4. Warm air, which weighs less than cold air, rises.5. Then cool air moves in and replaces the rising
warm air. 6. This movement of air is what makes the wind
blow.
What Causes Wind?Bill Nye’s Explains Wind in 2 minutes!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBqohRu2RRk&feature=related
Bill didn’t use the word “convection”… but he described it!
How did he demonstrate convection?

Inland vs. Coastal Cities
Answer on page of your INB.1. Explain how the blue water and red water moved
in the container in the Moving Circles lab.2. Why do you think they moved that way?3. If the water in the containers represented the
ocean, how does the water in the ocean move?4. Recall that thermal energy moves in a predictable
pattern from warmer to cooler areas. How is this concept illustrated in this model?
