This laboratory activity helps students understand the great ocean conveyor belt by exploring how various factors and processes (such as changes in the temperature and density of ocean water) influence the direction of ocean currents. Further, students analyze and determine the effect of the ocean conveyor belt on global climate.
This activity allows students to learn and understand the urban heat island effect by measuring temperatures in an area, collating data and analyzing the data. Students use available temperature data for a specific location (Los Angeles) to observe and analyze the occurrence of heat waves.
The interactive simulations in this tool help students understand blackbody radiation and the effect of albedo on the temperature of a planet.

Interactive Energy and Climate Simulation
The game allows a student to explore scenarios of future energy demand, to allocate energy sources to meet projected demands and to observe the consequences on temperature and carbon emission levels.
This game can be used as an aid to teach topics such as Socio-economic Studies, and Energy, Economics and Climate Change.
