Students analyze the stability and change of sea level after watching a visualization of sea level height around the world.
Students compare climographs for two locations to determine the most likely months to expect the emergence of mosquitoes in each location.
Students will describe how the spread of COVID-19 is affected by population density and explain why patterns in the spread of COVID-19 are happening over time.
