People everywhere are interested in the weather, but how does it all work? Beginning with Earth’s atmosphere—its evolution, its gaseous composition, and its four regions—this video takes a close look at how conditions combine to create climate and weather. Topics include the Köppen Climate Classification System; weather prediction; types of clouds and precipitation; thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes; and weather patterns such as El Niño and La Niña. A viewable/printable instructor’s guide is available online. Correlates to National Science Education Standards, National Educational Technology Standards, and Standards for the English Language Arts. A Cambridge Educational Production. (26 minutes)
