The Sun's Effect on Earth

A variety of interesting effects are produced when the Sun's energy interacts with Earth's atmosphere and materials at Earth's surface. Select one of these effects and briefly describe the effect and explain how it is produced.

Go back to the >Energy Sources of the Sun and Earth Student Resource Sheet and indicate on the model poster display where you will place the descriptions and diagrams from this link.
