Goal 3:
The learner will conduct investigations and utilize appropriate technologies and information systems to build an understanding of the atmosphere.

Select an objective:
[|Objective 3.01]Explain the composition, properties and structure of the atmosphere:
 * Mixture of gases.
 * Stratified layers.
 * Each layer has distinct properties.
 * As altitude increases, air pressure decreases.
 * Equilibrium.

[|Objective 3.03]Conclude that the good health of environments and organisms requires:
 * The monitoring of air quality.
 * Taking steps to maintain healthy air quality.
 * Stewardship.

[|Objective 3.05]Examine evidence that atmospheric properties can be studied to predict atmospheric conditions and weather hazards: [|Objective 3.06]Assess the use of technology in studying atmospheric phenomena and weather hazards:
 * Humidity.
 * Temperature.
 * Wind speed and direction.
 * Air pressure.
 * Precipitation.
 * Tornados.
 * Hurricanes.
 * Floods.
 * Storms.
 * Satellites.
 * Weather maps.
 * Predicting.
 * Recording.
 * Communicating information about conditions.
