  9. When water vapour cools, turning it from a gas to a liquid, creating clouds
  10. Takes carbon from the biosphere or geosphere to the atmosphere. Fuel + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water
  11. The movement and cycling of water on the planet
  12. The cycling and changes that occur with the solid part of the Earth
  13. (3, 4, 8) The scientific study of cylindrical samples drilled from glacial ice sheets to determine the temperature of Earth over thousands of years ago by looking at trapped air bubbles in the ice.
  14. (7, 7) The process where a glacier shrinks in size due to the planet getting hotter, making them melt faster and grow slower every year.
Down
  1. The entry of water into the soil/ground
  2. When water falls from the atmosphere to the surface of the Earth, taking the form of rain, snow, sleet or hail.
  3. (6, 7) The long-term ongoing increase in Earth’s average surface temperature, primarily being driven by human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
  4. When water is absorbed by plant roots and released into the atmosphere as water vapour
  5. (5, 4) A place where carbon is stored
  6. (10, 6) The natural process where greenhouse gases trap heat radiating from the Earth’s surface, keeping the planet warm enough to sustain life.
  7. (3, 5, 6) As temperatures rise, ice melts causing the sea level to increase over time.
  8. The state and activity of the atmosphere at a particular place and time (short term)
  9. Takes carbon from the biosphere to the atmosphere. Oxygen + glucose = carbon dioxide + water.
  10. The long term average of prevailing weather conditions for a region. (around 30 years)
  11. Takes carbon from the atmosphere and puts it in the geosphere. Carbon dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen
  12. (10, 5) Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere keeping the surface of the Earth warm. Includes carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane, and nitrous oxides
  13. (7, 6) The long-term shifts in global temperatures and weather patterns with human activities such as burning fossil fuels being the primary driver.
  14. (5, 6) A place where carbon is consumed from
