OCR B GCSE Geography worksheet for the Global Hazards topic, focusing on global atmospheric circulation, pressure belts and contrasting climatic conditions.
Students complete and apply the global circulation model by labelling the Hadley, Ferrel and Polar cells, identifying areas of high and low pressure at approximately 0°, 30° and 60°, and showing where air rises and sinks.
The worksheet then develops understanding of how atmospheric circulation influences wet and dry climatic zones, drought and convectional rainfall, before moving into applied questions on changing pressure patterns.
It also includes a 4-mark OCR-style exam question asking students to explain how global atmospheric circulation can create contrasting weather conditions in different parts of the world.
Answers are included.
Suitable for classwork, homework, revision, independent practice or as a focused worksheet within the OCR B Global Hazards unit.
