Lesson objectives:
To develop knowledge about the types of air masses.
Reveal the role of prevailing winds in the general circulation of the atmosphere.
Develop the ability to work with diagrams and a climate map.

Equipment:
textbook, atlas, globe, climate map of the world.

Main content:
general circulation of the atmosphere. Types of air masses and their properties. Trade winds. Western winds of temperate latitudes. Eastern (katabatic) winds of the polar regions. Monsoons.

Checking homework:

1. What is atmospheric pressure?
2. What is wind and how is it formed?
3. How can we explain the uneven distribution of precipitation on the Earth's surface?
4. What are the reasons for the formation of different atmospheric pressure belts on Earth?
5. What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure belts and the amount of precipitation on the globe?

Learning new material:
Very often we witness changes in the weather in our area. What explains this? The main reason for such changes is the movement of air masses. Air moves due to uneven heating and cooling of the Earth's surface.
Information about the movement of air masses is of great importance. It interests not only meteorologists - specialists who study the processes occurring in the atmosphere, but also sailors, aviators, builders, as well as ground transport and healthcare workers.
Next, the teacher reveals the content of the concept of “air mass”. Large volumes of air that have more or less the same properties are called air masses. The air mass covers an area of ​​thousands and millions of square kilometers. An air mass acquires certain properties (temperature, humidity, transparency or dust content) when it comes into contact with the underlying surface over which it lingers. Moving air masses in relation to the underlying surface are divided into warm (TW), if they move to a colder underlying surface, and cold (CW), if they move to a warmer surface.
Depending on the place of formation, four types of air masses are distinguished: equatorial, tropical, temperate latitudes, arctic (Antarctic).
Systematization of knowledge about the types of air masses is carried out by filling out Table 13. The necessary data can be obtained from the climate map and Figure 32 of the textbook.

A moving air mass, under the influence of the underlying surface (highly heated, supercooled, dry, watery, mountainous, etc.), gradually changes its original properties. Students become familiar with the process of transformation of air masses on their own using the text in § 13 on p. 46 and 47 of the textbook.
How do the main types of air masses move on Earth?
In the troposphere, the predominant directions of air transport differ across geographic zones. The most stable winds - trade winds and monsoons - predominate in tropical latitudes, in temperate latitudes - westerly, in polar latitudes - eastern.
Drawing students' attention to Figure 33 of the textbook, the teacher asks the following questions: what direction do the trade winds have in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres? Why are the winds of temperate latitudes called westerly? In what region of the Earth do katabatic winds occur? Students show wind directions on a map and globe. When explaining the reason for the deviation of the winds, Figure 33 of the textbook is also used.
Summarizing the answers, we bring students to the formation of the concept of “general circulation of the atmosphere.” General atmospheric circulation - This is a system of air currents that covers the entire atmosphere and exchanges heat and moisture between individual zones of the globe.
At the end of the lesson, the teacher and the students create a logical chain:
Different angles of incidence of sunlight Uneven distribution of heat in the atmosphere Uneven distribution of atmospheric pressure Movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure General circulation of the atmosphere.

During the classes

I. Organizational moment.

The class is divided into five teams. Each team has a commander. He fills out the evaluation sheet, notes the answers of each speaking team member. At the end of the journey, each participant is scored.

Team score sheet.

F.I. 1 height 2 height 3 height 4 height 5 height 6 height 7 height 8 height final grade

Teacher: Guys, today we have an unusual lesson, you and I will climb to the top of the mountain. To do this, first we will do a warm-up. Let's check how you have mastered the previous material. On the table you have cards, each with two questions, answering which will allow you to rise to a height of 2000 m.

To climb to the following heights you need to answer the questions: (slide 3)

1.What is weather? Name the weather elements.

2.What is climate? Why is knowledge about climate necessary?

3. Decipher the symbols on the diagram (Collection of questions and tasks on geography p. 17).

4. The emission of heat and light by the sun is:

5. Unit of measurement of solar radiation (kcal? cm2)

6. What is total radiation?

Teacher: In order to continue our further journey, we need to make a stop. The weather is often unpredictable and we need to study the atmospheric processes that we may encounter during our journey (The teacher then proceeds to explain the new material).

Open your travel notebook to write down new concepts. To begin with, I ask you to answer the questions: (slide 4, 5, 6)

1. What are air masses? When air masses move over the earth's surface, what happens? (they tolerate heat and moisture)

2.What air masses influence the climate of Russia?

3. What reasons cause the movement of air masses? (pressure difference, uneven heating of the earth's surface.)

4. According to the difference in the properties of air masses, they are divided into: marine and continental.

What properties do these air masses have?

(Marine air masses are humid and bring precipitation. Continental air masses are dry and bring drought in the summer and clear and frosty weather in the winter.)

5. What is atmospheric circulation? (slide 7)

Atmospheric circulation is the movement of air masses of various origins. (Students write down the definition in their notebook)

Teacher: (slide 8)

Our country lies in temperate and polar latitudes, and most of the territory of Russia lies in temperate latitudes. In temperate latitudes, westerly transport (westerly winds) dominates; the Atlantic Ocean has a much greater influence on the climate compared to the Pacific Ocean.

Let's open the atlas and try to determine why Pacific Ocean has the least impact?

Since in the eastern part of our country there are mountains that trap air masses from the Pacific Ocean.

In winter, the main role is played by a vast area of ​​high pressure called the Asian High, the center of which is located in the Transbaikalia and Northern Mongolia regions. From it, areas of high pressure spread to the northeast to the Chukotka Peninsula, into Eastern Siberia, to the west through Kazakhstan and to the south of the Russian Plain to 50°N. The weather in summer is clear, quite warm, and in winter it is clear and frosty.

Also, the formation of the country's climate is influenced by the Icelandic and Aleutian minimums (PH), the Azores and Arctic maximums (Pv) (then the teacher talks about their influence on the weather).

The underlying surface has a great influence on climate formation. For example, Arctic air masses, passing through the Russian Plain, warm up so much that the weather remains clear and dry for a long time.

What happened to the air mass?

She changed her properties. (slide 9)

Transformation is a change in the properties of air masses under the influence of the underlying surface.

Why can Arctic air masses, penetrating far to the south of the Russian Plain, cause frosts in spring and cold snaps in winter?

The terrain has an effect.

Atmospheric fronts influence climate formation. (slide 10)

Atmospheric front - transition zones between air masses (see textbook Art. 58)

Arctic front - occurs between arctic and temperate air masses.

Polar front - occurs between temperate and tropical air masses.

The width of the front usually reaches several tens of kilometers. In the frontal zone, when two different air masses come into contact, there is a rapid change in pressure, temperature, humidity, strong winds blow, and precipitation occurs.

Two students were given a forward task to prepare a message about a warm and cold front (students present the messages at the board). (slide 11-12)

Climate formation is influenced by atmospheric vortices: cyclone and anticyclone. (The background summary is drawn up as the teacher explains on the board). (slide 13-16)

Students present a progress report at the board short term project
