Lab Exercise: Ocean Circulation Simulation: So Far, So Great
Patrick Callahan
How do oceans work? We see their ebb and flow, but what causes this enormous movement of water that influences the globe in many ways? Through a hands-on experiment, students learn the basic principles that cause ocean motion, that drive rising, sinking, and transport in the real ocean.

Lab Exercise: Vostok Ice Core: The Cold Hard Truth
Patrick Callahan
Examine Vostok ice core data from the Industrial Revolution to 160,000 years ago. Understand how climate indicators in the ice from our planet's past help scientists to envisage our climate future.

Lab Exercise: The Earth’s Radiation Budget: Balancing Your Heat Book
Patrick Callahan
Students enhance their understanding of the Earth's radiation budget and how it influences the Earth's climate through the application of NASA data. Additionally, there's a hands-on activity to test assess students' knowledge of the lab's concepts.
