Like Ferris Island, Maui and the Tibetan Plateau are two places that get more rain over some parts of their landscapes than others.
In what ways do these places seem similar to Ferris Island? Compare the pictures to the picture of Ferris Island and find at least two similarities.
Background for our Model:
We’ll use a notebook (representing a mountain) and a piece of tissue paper in our model.
Remember, water vapor is in the air and where air moves, the water vapor moves with it.
Because it is difficult to observe the movement of air or water vapor with our eyes, we’ll use tissue paper to figure out where air is moving. If I blow and the tissue paper moves, I know the air is moving from my mouth to where the tissue paper is.
What happened to the air when a notebook was placed between the person and the tissue paper?
What does the model show about how water vapor molecules move when wind blows toward a mountain?
DIRECTIONS
Choose Landscape 1
In RUN, check that the Water Molecules toggle is ON.
For the Wind Direction choose RIGHT.
Observe the movement of the water vapor.
Think about which factors affect (change) the movement of water vapor.
Press ANALYZE, then replay and press on a molecule of water vapor to more closely observe its movement.
On landscape 1 the wind is blowing from the ocean toward the mountain. Where did the water vapor move?
Where did it rain in the landscape 1?
DIRECTIONS
Choose Landscape 2
In RUN, check that the Water Molecules toggle is ON.
For the Wind Direction choose RIGHT.
Observe the movement of the water vapor.
Think about which factors affect (change) the movement of water vapor.
Press ANALYZE, then replay and press on a molecule of water vapor to more closely observe its movement.
On landscape 2 the wind is blowing from the ocean toward the mountain. Where did the water vapor move?
Where did it rain in the landscape 2?
How did the wind and the mountain move the water vapor in the atmosphere?
Choose the statement that best describes the movement of the water molecule that is outlined in the picture.
Where did most of the rain fall, on the East side or the West side?
What direction is the wind blowing?
What direction is the wind and mountain pushing the water vapor?
What is the temperature higher up in the atmosphere?
Condensation happens at what temperature?
Why is there more water vapor condensing and falling as rain on West Ferris?
Use the words: water vapor, wind, atmosphere, mountain
Sentence starter: The ______________________ pushes ______________________ up the ______________________ , higher into the ______________________ where it is colder.
