o cuenca): • Ocean Currents (corriente
marina): • Aquifers (Acuífero): • Flow (Caudal): • Fluvial regime (Régimen fluvial): • Low Water (Estiaje):
• Atmosphere: • Temperature: • Rainfalls (Precipitaciones): • Wind: • Pressure: • Isobars (isobaras): • Weather front (Frente
atmosférico):
• Climograma:
- Explain the differences between (or just define): • Alpine Mountain and old Mountain (macizo antiguo): • Plain (llanura) and Plateau (Meseta): • Weather and climate: • Antyciclones and Storm (Borrasca):
- Resume in a diagram how the natural environment affects society. - Point in a picture the structure of Earth: Cortex (Corteza), Mantex
(Manto) and core (Núcleo). - Explain, with his words, the theory of plate tectonics. - Point in a picture the kinds of relief (Mountains…). - Point in a map the oceans and continents. - Value how the relief affects society.
- Resume, in a draw, the problems about water. - Resume in a table the characteristics of European and Spanish rivers. - Point in a map European, Spanish and global reliefs and rivers.
- Resume in a diagram the agents that affect temperatures. - Point, in an isobars map, the anticyclones and storms. - Know the weather looking at an isobars map. - Resume and compare in a table the most important climates. - Define, explain and compare the landscapes in each climate. - Know the kind of landscape in an image. - Built a climograma and know which kind of climate is.
