Weather Anomalies
We will be discussing atmosphere and weather in Modules 6 and 7. Choose a weather anomaly, such as El Nino and La Nina, climate change, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, drought, heat waves, ice storms, or other. Be sure to define them, compare them to normal conditions and discuss the consequences of each. Include the economic impact damage to the Earth, and any long term consequences. If applicable, include the way that volcanoes, meteorite impacts, ice cap size fluctuation, or nuclear explosions might change them as well.
Your final paper should meet the following requirements:
8-10 pages in length (Does not include title page, reference page, images, diagrams, charts, or graphs.)
8-10 outside sources
Formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements.
