| Climate | The weather in some location averaged over some long period of time |
| Composition of Atmosphere | Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon |
| O3 | Ozone, protects the earth from UV rays, keeps heat in |
| Troposphere | Where weather occurs |
| Stratasphere | Jets fly and where the Ozone is located |
| Factors that affect Temperature | Oceans, Winds, Elevation, Latitude |
| Rain Shadow | Desert on the leeward side of mountain ranges |
| Weather | Day to Day change in Temperature, Wind, and Precipitation |
