About climate and climate change mind maps
GoConqr OriginalClimate and Climate Change mind maps
These maps connect topics within the unit, from the layers of the atmosphere to evidence of past climates. Start with The Atmosphere for branches on air pressure, heat transfer and winds. Its range of topics makes it a useful starting point if you want to see how ideas fit together.
For a narrower question, Why are deserts hot and dry? links sinking air, pressure and cloud formation. Climate - Distant and Recent Past brings together evidence from sources such as sediments, fossils and tree rings.
Study with a map
Follow a branch and explain its connections in your own words. Then cover the details and see which links you can recall. If you want to check your understanding with questions, switch to a quiz on the unit page; use flashcards there when you want to practice recalling details. Choose a branch and see how the ideas connect.
Frequently asked questions
Which mind map should I start with?
The Atmosphere is a useful starting point if you want to explore several connected topics. It has branches on the layers of the atmosphere, air pressure, heat transfer and winds. For a more focused question, Why are deserts hot and dry? follows links between sinking air, pressure and clouds.
Do the maps cover past climate?
Yes. Climate - Distant and Recent Past includes sources of evidence such as sediments, fossils and tree rings. Causes of Ice Ages looks at contributing factors, including changes in ocean and atmosphere circulation. Overview covers orbital forcing, with branches on eccentricity and the tilt of the Earth.
Are these mind maps free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed on this page is free to open and study without an account. The maps were made by GoConqr users, rather than by GoConqr. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
