Use the information in this box to answer questions 6 - 8

Alejandro is studying weather. He gets weather data from 3 cities. A map of the 3 cities is shown below. Use the weather data and the map to answer the questions that follow.

Criteria For Success:

Think:
Determine which city is near a body of water
Identify the temperature of that city
Determine if that city would have the most water moving into the atmosphere.
Write:
Claim: Identify the city that would have the most water moving into the atmosphere during the day
Evidence: Use evidence from BOTH the weather data and the map to support your claim.
Reasoning: Name AND Explain the phase change and temperature that causes water to move into the atmosphere.

What process causes water to move from the land or the ocean into the atmosphere?

A) Evaporation
B) Condensation
C) Precipitation

The next week the temperature in New York, NY rises (increased) to 85° F. Would you expect more or less water to move into the atmosphere in New York? Why?

A) More water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause more evaporation
B) More water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause more evaporation
C) Less water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause less evaporation

Jesse is looking at a picture of Ferris Island. He is wondering why it rains a lot in West Ferris. Using what you have learned about how water travels, explain to Jesse why West Ferris gets more rain. (8 pts)

Criteria For Success:
Claim -  Identify the amount of water vapor on West Ferris and what happens to the water vapor.
Evidence - Use evidence from the simulation to explain what happens to the water vapor that causes more rain.
Reasoning:
Explain the phase change that forms raindrops
Explain how raindrops form
Identify where the water for raindrops comes from
Identify the amount needed
Identify the temperature
Identify the phase change that forms raindrops
