Wind is the movement of air on Earth. Wind is an important component of weather and affects ocean currents and waves on a global scale.

Ocean Literacy Principles:

OLP 1: The earth has one big ocean with many features

OLP 3: The ocean is a major influence on weather and climate

This introduction to atmospheric effects gives an overview of the concepts and activities explored in this unit and describes how these investigations build an understanding of ocean literacy.
