field so it is exposed to all the elements throughout the day wind‚ rain‚ and the Sun. I recorded my data every night at 6:30pm consistently over the 14 day period. Wind vane 3.2 I made my wind vane out of cardboard‚ sand‚ 2l bottle‚ and kebab sticks. Every night it measured the direction of the wind by having it face north and let the wind turn the arrow to the direction the wind was blowing. Overall it gave me a rough idea of the wind directions and patterns in Christchurch. Thermometer Screen

(Underwater). Another important key a hurricane needs to form is winds mainly coming from the west (Westward)‚ as this happens the water evaporates due to the wind and the heat pulling up then cools down when high enough and transforms into giant water droplets creating the ginormous cumulonimbus clouds. After the clouds begin to circle around caused by the wind and lest the water go down the eye/hole in the

It was around 4 PM when we arrived at the beach‚ and it was about 77 degrees Fahrenheit. The coastline of the shore is a curve that faces southwest. Winds are disturbing forces that move the waves‚ and they generate every time there is a density boundary. The cool winds were coming very strong from the West at 251° that it wasn’t a good day to surf at

hurricanes. Tornadoes are more powerful than hurricanes. Tornadoes have a higher wind speed. Tornadoes hit small areas and destroy a lot. Hurricanes mostly knock down objects‚ Tornadoes picks up and throw the objects. In addition to tornadoes being more destructive‚ the reason is because of the wind speed. Tornadoes wind speed is much higher than the hurricanes wind speed. The Fujita scale is for the different names and wind speeds for tornadoes.

happen through gravity‚ wind‚ ice and water. In the Tongariro Volcanic Centre‚ winds are an effective denudation agent because the mountain top gales are frequent and severe. Winds can transport and deposit debris. They carry with them fine silts and sand particles and depositing them downwind. Material that is not protected by matted roots of plants‚ like tussock‚ is eroded by the wind leaving the plant isolated. Winds also distribute ash during eruptions. Since winds are usually westerly‚ ash

At our first location which was Creg Beach‚ Lahinch‚ Co.Clare we observed a diversion of the River Moy. With a compass‚ the direction of the diversion was determined and recorded. I then took a photo of the diversion and drew a sketch map of it. Further across the beach each student picked a stone at random from the beach surface‚ wiped it clean and placed it on a flat surface. A drop of hydrochloric acid was placed on each rock and each rock that reacted was counted and recorded as limestone and
