    This website shows how stromatolites form and it goes into depth about it. They generalize all facts about stromatolites and what they are. They can go into detail but Wikipedia can be unreliable because I found several grammatical and spelling errors

    Stromatolites are the oldest form of life and are composed of many different types of bacteria hardened together. This website was pretty accurate and related to the Lykins era in Denver history.

    This website tells about the process of climate change, but it also tells about global warming. This is a good website to find facts about climate change and global warming. This website also tells about why 2012 was the hottest year in U.S. history. The map on the bottom of the page is very detailed. It shows a very detailed map about climate change and the global warming.

    This article includes many statistics about climate change all over the world, such as, global emissions jumped 3 percent in 2011 and are expected to jump another 2.6 percent in 2012. It also explains why 2012 was the hottest year ever recorded in US history. At the bottom of the page, there is a picture that you can click on that takes you too a map of heat across the US.

    The world reached a record high amount of carbon admissions in 2011 sending the amount of carbon in the air up 3 percent, and they are expected to rise another 2.5 percent by 2012, reports are showing that in the most advanced countries admissions amounts are gradually decreasing due to there efforts to reduce carbon admissions. Admissions continue to grow so rapidly that the world has set a goal of keeping the rise under 3.6. For many decades scientists have said they will do something but never have.

    Q and A with climate change facts! Good to quiz yourself with:) my favorite is: In the past, has Earth been warmer than it is today? If so, does that mean we shouldn't worry about global warming?
  • Charlie Wallace on 05 Mar 13
     
    NASA (National Aeronautics Space Administration) and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) agree that climate change is happening and humans are contributing to it. Many people agree in the United States of America and abroad. MAny believe it is because of greenhouse gases from humans. Scientists are trying to answer some very important questions such as how quickly will the world warm, and what consequences will that have on certain parts of the world. The global temperature average has risen by 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit over the last 100 years. NOAA said that the decade between 2000-2010 was the warmest decade on record. 2005 was the warmest year on record. There have been more intense rainfall and severe heat waves. Sea levels are rising. The Earth does go through warming and cooling because of factors such as sun and volcanic activity. The warming and cooling is partly natural and partly because of humans. The sun's energy has fluctuated but is small in comparison compared to human's effect. The warming is consistent with what happens with heat trapping carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide can lead to climate changes that can hurt plants, animals, and people. For every 2 degrees Fahrenheit raise 5-15% reductions in crops. 3-10% increase in rain which would create flooding. 5-10% increase in stream flow. 200-400% increase in wildfires in the western United States. Scientists predict that the temperature will rise 2-12 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. It is not too late too fix climate change!

    Some of the major tectonic plates are the North American, African, and Antarctic plates. There are only a few major tectonic plates. There are three different boundaries that are formed when the plates move.

    This was a very good article about the movements of tectonic plates. One of the most interesting facts that I had learned from reading the article was that the tectonic plates make up earths outer shell called the lithosphere. There were also many different things that I didn't know about such as that if the plates keep diverging in the Great Rift Valley in Africa, millions of years from now, eastern Africa will split apart from the continent creating a new continent. the three different types of Tectonic Boundaries are called convergent, divergent, and transform.

    I thought it was interesting that sauropods adapted to have body armor. This is a very good resource.
  • Tucker Hamilton on 02 Dec 12
     
    It used to be thought that the sauropods had a second brain at the base of the tail. Paleontologists now realize that what they thought was a second brain was perhaps an enlargement in the spinal cord in the hip area (although this is not universally accepted), containing nerves and fatty tissue. This enlargement was larger than the animal's tiny brain and may have controlled the animal's hind legs and tail.

    This was a very useful website that talked about the size of the sauropods bodies and necks, what they ate, and a lot of other cool facts about them.
  • angelaeast on 03 Dec 12
     
    Sauropods are not heavily armed, but later versions of sauropods had some form of armor which was used as protection against other predators. Sauropods were plant eaters and had a very small brain hecause their head was very small. They were herbavores and ate mostley connifers.

    Great find Christine. this really relates to what we have been learning in science class. Some of the facts that i had learned while reading the sections, even though I had not read all of them because, I was pressed on time, that stromatolites are considered one of the earths oldest fossils besides phylogenetic determination of conserved nucleic acid sequences. Stromatolites are basically considered portals to the knowledge of earths past life, into the deep time of the earths existence, the evolution of different species that are thriving in the modern times. I didn't know that scientist often disagreed on how to classify stromatolites. Some believe that it is a laminated rock that is formed by the growth of blue or green algae.

    Brontosaurus was one of the largest land animals that ever existed. The dinosaur Brontosaurus is now called Apatosaurus. This enormous plant-eater measured about 70-90 feet long!!!! and about 15 feet tall at the hips.

    This site tells about the brontosaurus which is now called apatosaurus. This dinosaur has a very small intelligence. This was a good website.

    I never knew that some of those dinosaurs existed back then from the chart at the very bottom of the page.

    Evan, this was a very good site to learn about brontosaurus or apatosaurus. Apatosaurus have a small head which concludes that they have a small brain, and aren't the most intelligent species that had lived during their time. They had a long tail which acted as a counterbalanced to its very long neck. It also was a tool of protection from other predatorsYet the extremely long neck had advantages for a herbavore who would be constantly attacked by hungry predators. The apatosaurus was a very tall sauropod, which was taller than the allosaurus, which was a predator of the time. The allosaurus is not tall enough to try and snap at the head of the dinosaur, and it wouldn't be smart to get near a whip like like tail such as the apatosaurus's. It had a bulky body and ate rocks to help the digestion of its food.An interesting fact that i had learned was that their nostrils were located on the top of their head, but it couldn't be used as a snorkeling device because the apatosaurus lived on land and not near many big masses of water. I had peg like teeth, which resembling ones of a lizard today, and had four legs.

    This website was very useful in talking about the apatosaurus. The apatosaurus was a plant eater (herbivore). This dinosaur had a small head and walked on four legs. The apatosaurus was one of the biggest land animals.

    When we looked at the website we didn't really explore it much so it was nice to see everything on it.

    This has really good information on the apatosaurus. It tells you everything you would need to know about this dinosaur.

    This has very good information but I had a lot of trouble understanding it! It has a lot of fancy science words that I don't know. This could be used to learn some more science vocabulary.

    Wikipedia had a variety of facts which will help us in class. The information was fascinating but the website did include some details about the animal that weren't necessary.
