Coordinates system:
is an arrangement of reference lines or imaginary lines on the globe. By means of coordinate
system the position or location of any place on Earth’s surface can be determined and
described.
Latitude:
Latitudes are horizontal lines; it is progressive angular measurements north or south of the
equator. Latitudes are imaginary lines running from east to west on the Earth’s surface.
Lines of latitude are often referred to as parallels, this is because latitude is a line that runs
parallel to the equator and never intersects. Parallels get smaller towards the poles than closer
to the equator. Latitude is measured in degrees.
Longitude
are vertical lines; it gives the measurements east or west of the Prime Meridian.
Longitudes are imaginary lines running from the North Pole to the South Pole.
Lines of longitude are often referred to as meridians. Meridians are important for setting time
zones. Longitudes are measured in equal degrees per line.
Prime meridian serves as a reference point for measuring the distance east or west, located
at zero degree (0º) at Greenwich, England. The farthest point eastwards from the Prime
Meridian is expressed as 180°E and the farthest point westward is expressed as 180°W.
Coordinate
The location of a certain place can be described by using latitude and longitude. The
intersection point between the latitude and the longitude of a certain place to find its
location.
WEEK 2: EARTH RESOURCES
Non-renewable resources
EXAMPLES: COAL, OIL, PLASTIC
Renewable resources
EXAMPLES: Solar energy, Wind Energy
THERMOSPHERE (80-110Km)
• “Thermo” means" heat
• “Aurora Borealis”- Northern Lights are found
• Thickest and Hottest layer
• Found between 80km and 110km above the Earth’s
surface.
• Ionosphere, part of the thermosphere which causes Green
Northern Lights
EXOSPHERE (500-1000Km)
• “Exos” means outside
• The upper limit of our atmosphere
• Merge into outer space
• Satellites and space ships are stationed in this area
• 500km to 1000km from Earth
Coriolis effect.
The movement of the wind moving in a circular path is due to the effect of earth’s rotation. The
influence of the wind moving in a curved path.
SEA TO LAND
At night, the land cools faster than the sea due to the large specific heat capacity of water. At
this time, the air above the sea is warmer than the air above the land. The warm air rises and
the cold air from the land blows in and replaces the warm air above the ocean.
The movement of air from land to sea is called land breeze as shown in figure 2.
Amihan or northeast monsoon draws cold, dry air from high pressure areas
of Siberia, China, and Japan to low-pressure areas of the Philippines. The
cold air that we experience from November to February is part of it.
WEEK 5: SEASONS
After six months, in December, the North Pole will be pointing away from the Sun .The
The Northern Hemisphere will no longer receive direct rays from the Sun. The Northern
Hemisphere will then experience a time of cold. For temperate countries in the Northern
Hemisphere, it will be winter. In the tropical Philippines, it is simply the cold season.
When the Sun’s rays strike the ground at a high angle, each square meter of the ground
receives a greater amount of solar energy than when the rays are inclined. The result is
greater warming.
The cold season is the result of the Sun’s rays striking the ground at a lower angle. To an
observer, the Sun at midday will not be directly above; it will be lower in the sky
WEEK 6: ECLIPSES
Solar Eclipses- happen when the sun and the moon and the earth are aligned and block the
sunlight from reaching the earth. It will only happen in a phase of a new moon, and two ecliptic
nodes meet.
MOON'S SHADOW:
UMBRA- DARKEST PART OF THE MOON'S SHADOW.(TOTAL ECLIPSE)
PENUMBRA- LIGHTEST PART OF THE MOON’S SHADOW(PARTIAL ECLIPSE)
(duration IS 7 MINUTES AND 30 SECONDS.)
Lunar Eclipse- It can only happen in the full moon phase and can last for a few hours at
nighttime.
EARTH’S SHADOW:
UMBRA: DARKER INNER REGION OF THE EARTH’S SHADOW WHERE ALL THE
SUNLIGHT IS BLOCKED OUT.
PENUMBRA- LIGHTER INNER REGION OF THE EARTH’S SHADOW WHERE ALL THE
SUNLIGHT IS PARTIALLY CLOSED
