Url: https://www.americangeosciences.org/education/ec/efs
Publisher: American Geological Institute
Description: Module covering Earth's three fluid spheres: oceans, atmosphere and cryosphere (glaciers). An event seen in each sphere illustrates processes and concepts: El Nino events for oceans; thunderstorm formation for atmosphere; and global temperature change impacts on glaciers. Concepts covered include: properties of air, water, ice as fluids; flow of energy and matter between spheres; short and long-term cycles; and others. Activities include on-line literature research, use of maps and other data sources.
