The ocean has an impact on all types of weather phenomena, from the rainiest wet seasons to the driest droughts. Investigate how the heating of the ocean affects global weather and climate patterns through circulation. Conduct experiments to gain a deeper understanding of the role the greenhouse effects plays in climate change. Analyze how oceanic currents circulate heat throughout our ocean basins, and how sometimes that can bring tropical creatures to our shores! Includes: Experiments, boat trips, seining
