Why doesn’t the water get as hot as the seatbelt?

Net Radiation Budget
![Page 5: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Balancing the Net Radiation Budget
• Thermal energy concentrated at the equator is spread out
towards the poles via the atmosphere and the hydrosphere
![Page 6: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Thermal energy can be transferred in two ways:
![Page 7: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere
• Warm air at the equator
is exchanged with cool
due to their different
densities (hot air rises;
cold air sinks)
• The movement of air
forms convection
currents that circulate
and distribute heat
around the world.
![Page 8: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Coriolis Effect

The Coriolis Effect
• Land at the equator is rotating at a greater
speed than land at the poles
• Convection currents or any other moving
objects on Earth’s surface tend to veer
sideways from their original course due to
Earth’s rotation on its axis.
• This is called the Coriolis effect and it is the
reason storms spin opposite direction in the
Northern and Southern hemispheres
![Page 10: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Jet Streams
• Jet streams are currents of extremely fast moving air in the upper troposphere
• Jet streams form at boundaries between warm and cold air due to a combination of convection and the Coriolis effect.
• How could airplanes take advantage of jet streams?

Thermal Energy Transfer in the Hydrosphere
• Just like there are
convection currents in the
atmosphere, they are also
in the ocean
• The global ocean currents
exchange warm and cool
water, thereby spreading
warm water around.
• Cold water sinks while
warm water rises

The Gulf Stream
• The Gulf Stream is a 100km wide surface current that starts in warm,
shallow seas of the Caribbean and continues up the North American coast
before curving towards the British Isles where it becomes the North
Atlantic Drift
• What would happen if the Gulf Stream stopped
circulating?

• You have learned about 3 factors that
affect climate:
– Insolation
– Air currents in the atmosphere
– Ocean currents in the hydrosphere
• Of these 3 factors, insolation has the
strongest effect on the climate of a
region

Specific Heat Capacity
• The reason proximity to
water has such a huge
effect on climate is due to
its specific heat capacity.
• Specific heat capacity is
the amount of thermal
energy it takes to raise the
temperature of a
substance.

Specific Heat Capacity of Water

Specific Heat Capacity• A higher specific heat
capacity means it takes
more energy to increase
the temperature of a
substance

Pure water 4.19
Sea water 3.89
Alcohol 3.46
Ice 2.00
Moist air 1.15 (varies)
Dry air 1.00
Aluminum 0.90
Steel 0.50
Iron 0.5
• This explains why the
steel seatbelt gets
screaming hot while the
water in the bottle does
not.

• About 70% of Earth’s
surface is covered by water,
so the capacity of water to
absorb thermal energy has a
huge effect on climate.
• Due to specific heat capacity
of water the hydrosphere
heats up and cools down
slowly compared to the
lithosphere and atmosphere.

Climatographs
How would you explain why the air temperature
tends to vary more with the seasons in
Lethbridge than Vancouver?
![Page 23: Topic 2: Thermal Energy Transfer · 2019-06-02 · Thermal Energy Transfer in the Atmosphere • Warm air at the equator is exchanged with cool due to their different densities (hot](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043006/5f8e29d348391218b41d64ea/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Coastal Cities
• Coastal cities like
Vancouver experience
less variation in
seasonal temperatures
because the ocean
water, which doesn’t
easily change
temperature, keeps the
air temperature more
consistent.
