SO262, Spring 2011
In Class Exercise--Koppen and Wegener
We will break the class into groups of 2, each of which will prepare a Power
Point discussion of a location. Your
presentation will include:
- A map showing the location.
- A climograph from the area, showing what conditions are like.
- A listing of the rules that determine this category, and the meaning of
the gray line on the climograph that determines.
- A discussion of why this climate occurs where it does, and what it means
for the area.
- A map showing the earthquakes and volcanoes in the region, and a
discussion of the types of each and what they mean in terms of danger to the
local inhabitants.
