🔍 Key Concepts

• Short-term vs. long-term water level changes on the Great Lakes • How wind, air pressure, and seiches affect water level over hours to days • Which factors act over seasons/years instead of hours

💭 Think About

• Think about which option would change water levels quickly, within minutes to a few days, rather than over months or years. • Consider how strong winds and sudden pressure changes can push water from one end of a lake to another. • Decide which listed cause is more related to climate or seasonal patterns than to short-term fluctuations.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices are clearly meteorological events that can happen suddenly. • Recall that a seiche is an oscillation of water level caused mainly by wind/pressure changes on a lake. • Check which option would most likely cause a slow, gradual change in overall lake level rather than a rapid, temporary fluctuation.
