Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
Students collect and analyze temperature data to explore what governs how much energy is reflected.
In this lesson, students will investigate the drivers of climate change, including adding carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, sea level rise, and the effect of decreasing sea ice on temperatures.
