Videos & Images
Video: Electromagnetic Spectrum 
Video: Structure of Our AtmosphereGood overview of important characteristics of each layer including where meteor showers occur, dangers of the ozone hole, etc.
Video: Layers of the AtmosphereEarth's early atmosphere compared to current. Good summary of the important characteristics of each layer.  NOTE: Does not include exosphere.
Video: Layers of the AtmosphereDiscussion of graphs showing the different properties of the layers in relationship to altitude - temperature, pressure, water vapor, etc.  Describes reasons for the variations.
Video: Energy Transfer Describes the 3 ways that the sun's energy is transferred throughout the earth's atmosphere by radiation, conduction & convection. Discusses why much of the sun's energy never reaches earth's surface due to reflection & absorption.
Video: Fronts (Includes cloud formation & orographic lifting) The first 3 minutes of the video apply to this chapter and describes cloud formation, cloud nuclei, orographic lifting, windward & leeward sides of mountain, lift due to convection.


Video: Relative Humidity & Dew Point Humidity related to clouds vs. clear skies, why warm air can hold more water before it is saturated

Video: Using a Sling Psychrometer  to determine relative humidity & dew point using a wet-bulb and dry-bulb temperature.
