Carbon emissions and surface warming
This short video from Liverpool University focuses on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. It shows the complex inter-relationships between and among various climatic factors and human-induced carbon dioxide increases, resulting in ocean surface warming.
This video was produced by Dr Andy Heath...
Carbon Footprint
Mathematical modelling is the focus of this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching. Students explore the mathematics behind carbon emission measurement and the concept of carbon footprints. Basic calculations for the travel component of a carbon footprint are demonstrated here, but many...
Ice cube melt
The video and worksheet set out a measurement challenge for students that can be carried out at home or in school. Students use ice cubes (coloured with food dye to visualise the melting process easily) to represent ice masses found in the sea, freshwater lakes or on land (glaciers.) The ice cubes (of similar...
Bog Core Analysis and Climate Change
This activity looks at climate change and its effects on succession in a location in Norfolk over 12000 years ago.
Students carry out a simulation of a bog core analysis, based on work by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research together with data from the Department of Geography, University of...
