Subject Area: Science Grade: 912 Body of Knowledge: Earth and Space Science Standard: Earth Systems and Patterns - The scientific theory of the evolution of Earth states that changes in our planet are driven by the flow of energy and the cycling of matter through dynamic interactions among the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, geosphere, and biosphere, and the resources used to sustain human civilization on Earth. Date Adopted or Revised: 02/08 Content Complexity Rating: Level 3: Strategic Thinking & Complex Reasoning - More Information Date of Last Rating: 05/08 Status: State Board Approved Remarks/Examples Explain how the oceans act as sources/sinks of heat energy, store carbon dioxide mostly as dissolved HCO3- and CaCO3 as precipitate or biogenic carbonate deposits, which have an impact on climate change.

They then will draw conclusions and make predictions as to the role of ocean currents in climate. Students will learn about how the oceans absorb CO2 and because the oceans are absorbing CO2 at such an alarming rate, the oceans are acidifying. Students will learn about the effects of acidification on the oceans. Students will research on their Climate Change and Future own, using reliable websites given by teacher, the past, present, Effects on Coral Reefs and possible future effects of acidification on coral reefs, and gather information about where this has taken place already and the effects. Students will create a poster of the past, present, and possible future amounts of CO2 absorbed in the ocean and discuss the effects on the health of coral reefs. In this activity, students will practice the steps involved in a scientific investigation as they learn why ice formations on land Global Climate Change and (and not those on water) will cause a rise in sea level upon Sea Level Rise melting. This is a discovery lesson in ice and water density and displacement of water by ice floating on the surface as it relates to global climate change. Students will reinforce previously taught concepts, such as water taking longer to heat up (and longer to cool down) than land, but extend their understanding using the NOAA link "Ten Ocean Heat and a Warming Signs of a Warming World." They will focus on the tab "Ocean World Heat Content," and explore the ways in which scientists are measuring ocean temperatures. They will examine the data concerning ocean heat content and obsere the large effects that oceans are having in a warming world. In this lesson, students will analyze an informational text on the carbon dioxide/oxygen exchange in the Southern Ocean. The extent to which massive Southern Ocean currents, other biotic and abiotic factors, and ocean color impacts global warming is Researching Remote Regions: currently not known. Scientists will use a modified plane set up Role of the Southern Ocean as a laboratory to gather this data. The lesson is designed to support reading in the content area and includes a note-taking guide, text-dependent questions, a writing prompt, answer keys, and a writing rubric. The changing climate is an important topic for both scientific analysis and worldly knowledge. This lesson uses data collected by the National Snow and Ice Data Center to create and use Sea Ice Analysis statistical analysis as a tool to evaluate the sea ice loss. Students will use technology to quickly generate graphs for each month looking for trends, patterns or deviations over time. Students will use multiple hands-on activities, videos, and text The Role of Oceans in resources to evaluate the ocean's influence on global climate Climate Change change. Student engagement and investigation are the focus of Climate and Ocean Currents What Lies Beneath: Coastal Blue Carbon this lesson with the intent of increasing rigor and creating global citizens. The summative assessment focuses on student application of their new knowledge to answer a scientific question; students present their findings in various mediums. In this lesson, students will analyze an informational text that addresses the issue of releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from carbon sink sites located in coastal habitats. This informational text is designed to support reading in the content area. The text describes how carbon that has been stored for potentially thousands of years is getting released into the atmosphere due to coastal habitat destruction of mangrove forests, salt marshes, and sea grass beds. The lesson plan includes text-dependent questions, a writing prompt, answer keys, and a writing rubric. Text Resource Name Description This informational text resource is intended to support reading in the content area. Did you know that climate has two not-sonice children? Meet El Niño and La Niña, the "boy" and "girl" Climate's Troublesome Kids spawned by the global climate every 3-7 years. They can give the world a climate that's quite troublesome, depending on which one is causing the disturbance. This informational text resource is designed to support reading in the content area. The text describes different ecosystems that store carbon, like forests, and goes into how carbon is stored more efficiently in coastal ecosystems. The text goes on to Coastal Blue Carbon advocate for conserving and protecting our coastal ecosystems to keep the carbon stored and prevent the carbon from being released into the atmosphere to further impact the planet through climate change. The text also explores other benefits for conserving coastal ecosystems. This informational text resource is designed to support reading in the content area. The text describes how scientists led by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) are set to Flying Lab to Investigate launch a series of flights over the Southern Ocean in order to Southern Ocean's Appetite for collect data on how the air and seas surrounding Antarctica Carbon exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. It is hoped that this data will help us with future predictions about climate change, and maybe even lead to new insights on how the ocean works. This informational text resource is intended to support reading in the content area. The text explains that changing weather patterns can be linked to a weakening of the jet stream. It is Warming Arctic May Be known that the jet stream is responsible for changeable weather Causing Jet Stream to Lose Its patterns, and the weakening of the stream is causing weather Way conditions to stay in locations for longer periods of time. The article concludes that the fuel source of the jet stream (the differences in temperature between the tropics and the arctic) is becoming less dramatic, which in turn is weakening the winds.
