Inside the Earth• Core is the center of the
earth– Nickel and iron– Inner is solid, outer is liquid
• Mantle surrounds the core– Several layers– Most of earth’s mass
• Crust is the thin layer of rock on the surface of the earth

• Continental drift is the theory that the earth had a super continent on it called Pangaea
• Over the last 200 million years the super continent split into the current continents

Bodies of Water
• Oceans and Seas are salt water that cover 71% of earth– Help distribute heat on the planet
• Tributaries like streams and creeks feed into rivers which feed into lakes– Lakes hold 95% of our fresh water supply
• Some of the water flows into the pores of rocks and is called ground water

Hydrologic Cycle
• Rain falls onto the land and in the ocean
• Water drains into the ground and rivers and flows into the ocean
• The water evaporates from the land and ocean into the atmosphere which eventually returns as rain– 85% of the water that evaporates comes from
the ocean

Plate Tectonics
• The earth is constantly moving underneath with the heating and cooling of rock
• On top of this are tectonic plates which are located in the top of the mantle and the crust of the earth
• These plates are constantly moving• A fault is where these plates fracture the
earth’s crust• Pg 37

Earthquakes
• Earthquake is a violent movement of the earth• A seismograph records these movements• A Richter scale uses this recording to determine
the scale of the earthquake• The epicenter is where the earthquake begins• Earthquakes in the ocean can cause Tsunamis
– Waves have been recorded as high as 238 ft

Volcanoes
• Volcanoes happen when there is a build up of magma, gases, and water and they are released through a split in the earth– Most are found along plate boundaries
• Lava can form hills, mountains, islands, volcanoes
• Ring of Fire is a zone around the Pacific Ocean where much of the volcano and earthquake activity is found- pg 37

Weathering
• Weathering is the physical and chemical processes that change the characteristics of rocks on the surface– Creates smaller pieces of rock called
sediment
• Mechanical weathering does not change the composition of the rock, only the size
• Chemical weathering changes rocks into new substances

Erosion
• Erosion occurs when weathered material is moved by wind, water, ice, gravity
• Erosion can take away needed soil
• Erosion can also deposit needed soil

Factors Affecting Climate
• Wind currents- Cold air from the poles move towards the equator while hot air moves from the equator to the poles
• Ocean currents- pg 55- Moving in circular systems, cold water flows towards the equator and warm water flows towards the poles– These currents affect the temperature of an
area and the precipitation• Europe vs Canada

Factors Affecting Climate
• Zones of Latitude– Low, Tropical- Tropic of Cancer to Tropic of
Capricorn• Hot all year
– Middle, temperate- Tropics to polar regions• Climates vary greatly
– High, polar- cold all year

Factors Affecting Climate
• Elevation- distance above sea level affects climate– Air temperature drops about 3.5°F for every
1000 feet
• Topography- mountains affect climate, as wind travels up the mountain to the other side it cools and releases water, the wind is dry and warm as it travels down the other side
