| dew point | temperature at which condensation takes place |
| humidity | % of moisture in the air |
| air pressure | the eright of the atmosphere on the Earth's surface |
| Coriolis Effect | deflected winds caused by the Earth's rotation |
| troposphere | the layre of the atmosphere closest to the earth's surface; has water vapor |
| stratosphere | second atmospheric layer up from Earth's surface-holds ozone |
