Assignment:
You will create a draft PowerPoint presentation relative to the final project that incorporates what you have learned about general circulation since the last milestone, as well as aspects of the Storms section by introducing one of the four principal types of storms: midlatitude cyclones. Your submission should be detailed from an atmospheric science perspective but also contain elements relative to damage, death, and ecosystem impacts. Be sure to include detailed speaker's notes and appropriate graphs, charts, figures, pictures, or other relevant media to support your ideas on the following topics:
• Examine the general circulation of the (global) atmosphere (semi-permanent pressure cells, primary winds) and secondary circulations.
• Describe the life cycle of midlatitude cyclones (including how and why the systems develop, move, mature, and dissipate) and the resulting weather elements associated with them.
• Summarize the severe weather elements of midlatitude cyclones, including critical factors relative to damage, deaths, human safety, and ecosystem impacts.
The below topics should be represented in a slide and images where available.
General Circulation:Three-Cell Model
General Circulation:Semi permanentPressure Cells
General Circulation:Wind and Pressure
General Circulation:Ocean-AtmosphereInteractions
Storms: Life Cycle
Storms: SevereWeather
Storms: Causes
