Plants: Grasses, shrubs, mosses, lichens Animals: Snow Geese, Musk Oxen, Wolves, Caribou, Mosquitoes 3.___________ is a layer of soil that remains frozen all year round. PERMAFROST

2. How to create a climate graph?

3. Step One: Draw a three axis graph

4. Step Two: Add months to x-axis J F M A M J J A S O N D

5. Step Three: Add temperature to left hand y-axis J F M A M J J A S O N D 5 10 15 20 0 Temperature in ⁰c

6. Step Four: Add rainfall to the right y-axis J F M A M J J A S O N D 5 10 15 20 0 Temperature in ⁰c 50 100 150 200 0 Rainfall in mm

7. Now you’re ready to add the data! (You do need to look at your data before to work out what size your axis need to be!)

8. Step Five: Add your rainfall data J F M A M J J A S O N D 5 10 15 20 0 Temperature in ⁰c 50 100 150 200 0 Rainfall in mm Jan 55mm Feb 90mm

9. Step Six: Add the temperature line J F M A M J J A S O N D 5 10 15 20 0 Temperature in ⁰c 50 100 150 200 0 Rainfall in mm Jan 16⁰c Feb 14⁰c

10. YOUR CIMATE GRAPH IS FINISHED!!! WELL DONE!
