About climate and climate change flashcards
GoConqr OriginalClimate and Climate Change flashcards
These decks offer questions and prompts on topics across the unit. Weather and Climate Chapter 1 includes the difference between weather and climate, making it a useful starting point if you want to practice the basic terms. Evidence for climate change moves on to evidence over different timescales, including pollen samples.
For a closer look at causes, Drivers of Climate Change includes plate tectonics, while Milankovitch Cycle covers movements of Earth’s orbit and axis. You can also find cards on the Holocene and El Nino.
Study with the cards
Read each prompt and try to answer before checking the card. Return to the prompts you find difficult and explain them in your own words. If you need a broader picture, switch to a mind map on the unit page; when you want to test your recall in another format, try a quiz there. Open a deck that fits the topic you are studying today.
