Class Experience
Welcome to Oceanography 101. It's Really Not Just Whales, Icebergs, Sharks, Coral Reefs, Volcanos and Rubber Ducks... we will learn about those too, but there is much more! This course will use experiments and discussions to explore the oceans. The students will learn a bit about each of the basic concepts of oceanography that graduate students in oceanography learn: how the heat from the sun drives the winds that form the major ocean currents, what chemical properties it has, how the...
FractalMom is an oceanographer-turned-biodiversity-scientist with two curious children who help her investigate the world. My goal is to get the next generation of Citizen Scientists out there working to understand our world, sharing their discoveries and inventions, and using scientific reasoning to make sense of their own observations.
