be more perceptive of weather and its effects feel confident enough to apply some of the knowledge of the course to daily life, outdoor pursuits and other activities well away from normal formal study know enough about atmospheric science to judge public statements on the greenhouse effect, the ozone hole, El Ni&ntilde;o, pollution spread and other topical subjects know about the extent, the structure and the composition of the atmosphere, about density and pressure know about the energy flow into and out of the atmosphere, about blackbody radiation and the important difference between long wave and short wave radiation know the difference between temperature and heat, and the cause of seasonal and daily temperature variations know how to quantify and measure atmospheric moisture and determine whether condensation will take place recognize the major cloud types and the conditions under which fog forms know about the stability of motion of air packets, cloud development and some effects of the atmosphere on pollution spread know how rain and snow are formed know the general circulation patterns associated with global and large scale pressure systems and the general weather patterns that arise from them know how pressure, temperature and other properties recorded in a typical weather station are measured;
