Ocean acidification in the Pacific NW. General audience article on effect of acidification with failure of oyster larval development. Discusses ocean upwelling and it's primary driver without using the term upwelling.
ECMWF site with ERA project data, useful to change parameter (like options of data in climate explorer) and area (land, or ocean, or 20-60N, etc)
produces quick graphs to show the parameter or measured data is not the same across the globe
Fun to use, could be quick intro for climate explorer unit (found by drilling down on first reanalysis data after upload in climate explorer)
"changes in the solid earth (land - lithosphere or geosphere) result from interactions among the atmosphere (air), hydrosphere (water, including oceans, rivers, ice), biosphere (life) and the lithosphere."
Earth System Science Education Alliance Courses. At least two major groupings of lesson and unit plan information regarding global climate change teaching and learning. NASA Global Climate Change Education Modules, NOAA Ocean and Climate Education Modules. Strong on K-4 lessons but other can be adapted to middle and high schools.
summary of the 7 minute video of NASA scientists and their work on the Jakobshaven glacier, connections to climate change - longer warm or melting period, 4% of the glacial input to oceans
