This learning path explores how carbon moves through Earth's climate system, from fundamental chemistry to human impacts. It covers carbon reservoirs, fluxes, anthropogenic emissions, carbon sinks, and ocean acidification, building a clear understanding of the carbon cycle's role in climate.
This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamental concepts of climate forcings and feedbacks. It covers the basic physics of radiative forcing, greenhouse gases, and key climate feedback mechanisms such as albedo, water vapor, clouds, and carbon. The path emphasizes understanding the difference between forcings and feedbacks and how they interact to influence Earth's climate.
This path introduces the fundamental physics of ocean circulation and its role in Earth's climate system. Learners will explore surface currents, thermohaline circulation, upwelling, and ocean heat transport, culminating in an understanding of El Niño as a coupled ocean-atmosphere phenomenon.
This learning path introduces the large-scale patterns of air movement that distribute heat and moisture around the globe. Starting with the basic physics of heating and pressure, it builds up to the three-cell model, jet streams, monsoons, and trade winds. Designed for high school climate science students, the path emphasizes conceptual understanding and connects each component to the overall circulation system.
This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamental principles of ocean circulation, covering ocean structure, currents, waves, tides, and ocean-atmosphere interactions, with a foundation in basic physics. It progresses from basic physical concepts to the driving forces and patterns of ocean movement, emphasizing the role of oceans in the climate system.
This learning path guides high school students through the fundamental concepts needed to quantify the flow of energy into and out of the Earth system. Starting with basic physics and algebra, it builds up to solar radiation, albedo, the greenhouse effect, and the overall energy balance, culminating in a practical calculation of Earth's energy budget.
This learning path explains the greenhouse effect from basic physics principles, covering electromagnetic radiation, atmospheric absorption, and radiative forcing. Designed for high school students, it builds understanding step by step from fundamental concepts to the mechanism and its role in climate change.
This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamental concepts of atmospheric science, covering the composition, structure, temperature profile, and pressure of Earth's atmosphere. It begins with basic physics concepts and progresses through the layers of the atmosphere, emphasizing how temperature and pressure vary with altitude and the role of solar radiation.
This learning path introduces high school students to the core concepts of climate science, distinguishing climate from weather, exploring the components of the climate system, understanding historical climate changes, and learning how climate models work. It builds foundational knowledge for further studies in climate science.
This graduate-level learning path equips students with the comprehensive skills needed to design and conduct rigorous environmental biology research. It covers the full research cycle from hypothesis development and study design through field and laboratory methods, statistical analysis, scientific writing, and ethical practice. The path emphasizes the integration of ecological theory with quantitative methods and includes a capstone project to apply integrated skills.
