About This Activity
Although the ocean waters we swim in may feel cold, our global ocean in fact holds a massive amount of Earth's heat energy! Explore and model the layering of ocean water based on differences in temperature. Investigate the way heat is exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere. Recognize how these heat exchanges power the water cycle. Discover how these special relationships between ocean and atmosphere make our planet livable! Includes: experiments, kayaking, boogie boarding
