Resource Description
GLOBAL WARMING, Earth's Climate and Climate Change Kit. This kit focuses on one of the most discussed and studied topics in the scientific community today - global warming. This kit introduces you to Earth’s climate and the issue of global warming with 23 hands-on experiments while offering the basic knowledge needed to understand climate, the nature of change, human-induced change and the consequences of rapid change. First, learn about Earth’s climate system, weather, and atmosphere by conducting experiments with a model Earth and atmosphere. Explore the hydrological cycle to learn about humidity, clouds, and precipitation. Model Earth’s heat reservoirs, thermals, global and local winds, and ocean currents. Next, learn how human activity influences the climate with experiments involving carbon dioxide and the greenhouse effect. Measure the effects that increased levels of carbon dioxide have on the temperature of air. Learn about how warming affects the Gulf Stream. Finally, investigate the potential consequences of global warming on humans, ecosystems, and the world’s economies. The full-color, 48-page manual guides your experiments. For students age 10 and up. #KIT-18042.
