On October 28, 2015, a group of scientists from Otago University's Department of Physics observed the last sunset of the year in Antarctica to research why Antarctic sea ice has reached record heights for the past three years while Arctic ice is shrinking. They used heated water to melt through 2.3 meters of ice and deployed 16 instruments to measure the ice, hypothesizing that supercooled water below the ice keeps it cold, in an effort to understand why the ice behavior contradicts expectations of thinning under global warming.

On October 28, 2015, a group of scientists from Otago University's Department of Physics observed the last sunset of the year in Antarctica to research why Antarctic ice is growing while Arctic ice is shrinking. They believe supercooled water below the ice keeps it cold and allows it to grow, reaching record heights over the past three years. The scientists are using heated water to melt through the ice and take measurements with 16 instruments in order to understand why the ice is thickening instead of thinning with global warming.

formaldehyderesearchpaper
Formaldehyde is a colorless, flammable, toxic chemical commonly found in building materials and household products. It breaks down quickly in the air but can have long-term health effects from exposure like cancer. Formaldehyde is used to make other chemicals and products but poses risks to human and environmental health even at low levels of exposure through inhalation or skin contact. It is an indicator of air pollution and plays a role in the formation of ground-level ozone and climate change through chemical reactions in the atmosphere involving other gases.
Environment
The document calls for action to help children and animals who are suffering, and to address environmental issues like holes in the ozone, asking how long these problems can continue before people work together to make positive changes and heal the world.
Exhaler interview materials - 10-29-2015
The EXHALER is a novel nasal drug delivery device that uses a patient's exhaled breath to deliver a fine mist of the topical steroid fluticasone deeply and broadly throughout the nasal passages. In clinical trials, the EXHALER has shown significant improvements in symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), reduction in nasal polyp size, and decreased need for surgery compared to traditional intranasal steroid sprays. The EXHALER provides targeted delivery of medication to areas of the nose affected by inflammation that are not well reached by other treatments. It has potential applications for patients with CRS who have not responded well to existing therapies or who experience frequent disease exacerbations.

The document summarizes research investigating the transfer of skills from futsal to soccer. The research found that playing futsal led to greater ball contacts, passes, dribbles and interceptions compared to small-sided soccer games. Specifically, futsal increased passing by 29%, dribbling by 33% and interceptions by 33%. The conclusion is that futsal provides more opportunities for technical decision making than soccer small-sided games. Going forward, the researcher hopes to conduct more studies and obtain funding to further analyze the benefits of futsal for developing soccer skills.

This document discusses action mapping for rapid elearning development. It describes action mapping as identifying measurable goals, behaviors to achieve those goals, and activities to practice those behaviors. This allows for agile development of elearning modules in 12-15 weeks through close collaboration with subject matter experts and user testing. The process involves weekly meetings to develop scenarios without upfront writing, using storyboards and prototypes to get early feedback and make changes. The goal is to achieve behavior change through engaging learning that can be accessed and changed throughout development.
Globalwarming andrew
Global warming is caused by carbon dioxide emissions from human activities like driving cars and burning fossil fuels for energy. This carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere in the same way that glass traps heat in a greenhouse, causing average temperatures on Earth to rise. As the planet warms, ice caps and glaciers are melting, which causes sea levels to rise and could flood coastal areas. Many plants and animals are also affected by the changing climate. The rate of warming has increased over the past 150 years due to humanity's growing use of fossil fuels. Reducing fossil fuel use would help slow the pace of global warming.
Global warming ssg
Global warming is caused by carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere from human activities like burning fossil fuels. This traps heat and is warming the planet. The impacts include rising sea levels as ice caps and glaciers melt, altered climate conditions and precipitation patterns, and damage to ecosystems and coral reefs. Global warming is occurring at an accelerated rate compared to natural climate cycles in the past, and is having widespread effects on the environment and animal populations around the world. Urgent action is needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to limit the worst impacts of climate change.
Global warming Porumb Bogdan Alexandru
Global warming is caused by increased carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. This is melting polar ice caps and glaciers, causing sea levels to rise and threaten coastal areas. As the planet warms, species are facing habitat loss and population declines. Coral reef bleaching has increased due to rising ocean temperatures, destroying major reef systems. Urgent action is needed to reduce fossil fuel usage and slow the effects of climate change.
Global warming Porumb Bogdan Alexandru
Global warming is caused by increased carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. This is melting polar ice caps and glaciers, causing sea levels to rise and coastal areas to flood. As temperatures increase, some regions are experiencing more extreme weather like droughts, fires, downpours and flooding. Animal populations are also declining as their habitats change and coral reef bleaching has increased in recent decades. Reducing fossil fuel usage would help limit global warming impacts.
Effects of Climate Change: Melting Ice :
A group of glaciers in West Antarctica are melting and scientists say it cannot be stopped, though the effects can potentially be delayed. New studies have found the glaciers are melting faster than expected and are past the point of no return. This will lead to sea level rise which could cause problems for people like flooding and storms, though the full effects may take 200-1000 years. Slowing global warming could slow the melting rate to give more time to develop protections.

1. The document discusses global warming and the greenhouse effect, explaining that greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trap heat in the atmosphere and cause the planet to warm over time.
2. It then outlines some of the potential consequences of climate change, such as more severe weather, rising sea levels, health impacts, and ecosystem disruption.
3. Finally, it provides examples of how scientists use ice core data to study historical climate conditions and carbon dioxide levels, allowing them to better understand climate change.

The document discusses evidence of global warming in Antarctica. It notes that the Antarctic Peninsula has warmed 2.5 degrees Celsius over the past 50 years, much faster than the global average. This rapid warming led to the Larsen B ice shelf, the size of Cornwall, breaking off in 2002. While temperatures have increased on the peninsula and parts of the West Antarctic ice sheet are thinning, the East Antarctic ice sheet does not show signs of warming. Global warming is also affecting the Southern Ocean by causing earlier sea ice melt and more ice-free areas in summer. This is impacting the Antarctic marine ecosystem as warmer waters reduce phytoplankton and krill populations.
Record minimum for artic sea ice
Arctic sea ice reached its minimum extent for the year in 2012, falling to 50% lower than the 1979-2000 average and a new record low of 3.41 million sq km. Scientists say the loss of summer sea ice is a sign that the Arctic has entered a new climate era characterized by thinner ice, warmer air and ocean temperatures that cause more ice loss each summer. This loss of reflective sea ice leads to unusual warming of the Arctic atmosphere and has consequences like increased global temperatures, melting of polar ice and rising sea levels.
Global Warming
Global warming is caused by increased carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. Scientists have observed the impacts of rising temperatures, including melting ice caps and glaciers which raises sea levels and could flood coastal areas. As temperatures continue increasing due to fossil fuel usage, extreme weather, spread of diseases, and damage to coral reefs are projected to worsen. The effects of climate change have accelerated over the past 150 years due to human activity releasing greenhouse gases.
FinalDraft
The document discusses how snow and ice coverage in Antarctica is affected by climate change. It describes how greenhouse gas emissions are increasing global temperatures, causing ice sheets and glaciers to melt. This ice melt contributes to rising sea levels. The document also examines differences in ice melt between East and West Antarctica. Researchers study patterns like the Southern Annual Mode to better understand Antarctica's climate and how human activities like ozone depletion are impacting the region.
Global warming
The document discusses evidence that global warming is occurring rather than global cooling. It notes that the Earth's temperature has risen 1.4°F over the past century due to increased greenhouse gases from fossil fuel burning. This is causing Arctic ice to melt 5% per decade and glaciers worldwide to retreat. Rising sea levels and more extreme weather are threatening coastal communities. While some argue for global cooling, statistics show the last decade was the hottest on record and temperatures continue increasing, indicating the planet is warming rather than cooling.
arctic warming.pdf
Global warming causes greater temperature increases near the poles in a phenomenon known as polar amplification. Studies show the Arctic is warming at about four times the rate of the rest of the world due to Arctic amplification. The Greenland ice sheet has been melting at an alarming rate, including a sharp spike in melting in July 2022, and its melting was the single biggest contributor to sea level rise in 2019. A recent study found reduced sea ice in the Barents-Kara sea region can lead to more extreme rainfall events during the second half of India's monsoon season.
1.-Evidence-of-Climate-Change.pptx
Ice cores, tree rings, paintings/drawings, and global temperature data provide evidence of past climate change:
- Ice cores contain air bubbles that allow scientists to estimate past temperatures over 800,000 years and identify climate patterns. However, data is limited to specific locations.
- Tree rings indicate past climate conditions, with narrow rings representing cooler periods and wide rings warmer periods. But some tree species do not produce reliable rings.
- Paintings and diaries describe visual representations of past climate events but are subjective accounts that are hard to date accurately.
- Global temperature records from weather stations and satellites show modern warming of 0.6°C since 1950, but data is limited and station coverage is uneven.
Melting polar ice caps
The polar ice caps are melting at an increasing rate due to human-caused climate change. Studies from 2013 estimated that if melting continues, sea levels would rise 66 meters over the next 5,000 years. The main cause is carbon dioxide emissions which are enhancing the greenhouse effect and warming the planet's temperatures. As the ice melts, it has consequences like reduced albedo and sea level rise, as well as potential methane emissions from marine permafrost and changes to ocean currents. The extent of summer sea ice has declined significantly over the last few decades in both polar regions.

The extent of summer sea ice has declined significantly over the last few decades in both polar regions.
Another Global Warming Mystery
This mystery examines how climate change is causing permafrost in Alaska to melt, leading to soil subsidence and the sinking of structures like telegraph poles. Global warming is perpetuated by carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel use, which causes atmospheric warming. Even localized effects like sinking telegraph poles provide clues to this broader global trend. The mystery aims to analyze the causes and effects of global warming through examination of phenomena in specific areas and how they relate to worldwide climate patterns.

This document summarizes projections of future Arctic climate from the research of Zachary Labe. Sea ice extent is declining at a rate of 0.8 million km2 per decade as Arctic temperatures rise more than twice as fast as the global average. This warming amplifies in the Arctic (Arctic amplification) and is influencing weather patterns in northern mid-latitudes. Research indicates that continued sea ice loss will cause significant warming over the Arctic Ocean and a shift in the jet stream, with impacts on weather extremes. Understanding Arctic climate variability is important for assessing future local and remote responses to changes in the region.
Past Climate Change
Climate has changed significantly over timescales ranging from millions to hundreds of years due to natural causes. Scientists use physical evidence such as fossil records and geological features to show that climate was different in the past, with some periods having huge ice sheets extending far south. Data from ice cores show that temperatures and carbon dioxide levels have fluctuated, with cold glacial periods alternating with warmer interglacial periods over the past 2.6 million years. More recent evidence from historical records and nature also suggest the climate has changed regularly over the past 2000 years.

Mini beasts
Mini beasts, or invertebrates, are animals without backbones or internal skeletons. They make up the most numerous type of animal in the world, with over 25,000 species found in Britain alone. Unlike vertebrates which have backbones, invertebrates have soft, bendy bodies and many have hard shells or exoskeletons covering their bodies to provide protection. Examples given are insects and spiders, which have thin, strong exoskeletons that allow them to move more quickly than other mini beasts.
Interview with granny about school
This document asks questions about someone's school experience including where they went, what it was like, who their teachers were, what they learned, punishments, class sizes, how long they attended, and their happiest memory.
School interview
The document summarizes an interview between Benji and his Dad about his primary school experiences. His Dad attended Meadowbank school for year six, where he liked his nice teacher and enjoyed the big fields and interesting projects. Meadowbank school and Selwyn college were his favorite schools that he attended, though he was only at Meadowbank for less than one year in year six. He did not go on any school trips.
Poppy
Staff at Auckland Zoo were excited to witness the hatching of two North island brown kiwi chicks from four eggs they received, though sadly one egg did not hatch successfully. The mother of one chick and another living chick were part of the zoo's Nest Egg Bird programme. Kiwis progress through four stages at the zoo - egg, caretaking, breeding, and enclosure - and while still developing, the hatched chicks were pink with long feathers. In the wild, kiwi eggs face many predators, so the zoo provides protection for the endangered birds.
Tonga
Tonga offers many attractions for visitors including its royal cemetery. The culture of Tonga has evolved over 3000 years of inhabitation, with the local people originally speaking Tongan and having frequent contact with neighboring islands. Traditional Tongan cuisine focuses on staples like taro, yams, bananas and coconut, along with raw shellfish, though Western influence has introduced new foods. In pre-contact times, Tongan women's roles centered around childrearing, gathering shellfish, and weaving barkcloth and mats that were important for cultural exchanges. The document encourages the reader to visit Tonga to experience its attractions and culture firsthand.
Tonga
Tonga has over 176 beaches ranging from private to crowded that are perfect for swimming, sunsets, and families. Visitors can also swim with whales from July to October by going diving in coral reefs and caves with colorful sea life. The culture features intricate dancing and arts like carving and basketry. A variety of seafood and island dishes can be enjoyed, including sea snails, fish, lobster and octopus freshly caught from the clear waters.
samoan food
Samoans commonly eat banana leaves and taro that are cooked in traditional methods. Banana leaves are fried in pans over fires and eaten mostly for breakfast. Taro, a root vegetable, is cooked in umu, which are earth ovens that use pits in the ground to trap heat and steam foods. Umu are one of the simplest and most ancient cooking structures and have been used widely in past cultures.
Copy of samoa
Samoan culture is based on communal living and has three main parts: faith, family, and music. Traditional Samoan artwork includes siapo, which are decorative tapa cloths made from bark and featuring designs of fish, turtles, or hibiscus flowers. While originating in Samoa, the making of siapo has also spread to other Pacific islands.
Samoan food
Samoan cuisine features dishes like green bananas with coconut cream, beef with vermicelli noodles, and coconut cream with fish. Common alternate foods include canned corned beef and fish. Special foods center around whole fish, chicken, or pig that are cooked for celebrations or gatherings.
Samoa
Samoa is a group of nine islands in the South Pacific ocean known for its beauty. Most Samoans grow and catch their own food using traditional methods like fishing and cooking in an underground oven, as supermarkets are scarce. Samoan culture is expressed through beautiful artwork featuring dark colors and patterns, and through traditional dances like the slap dance, clap dance, and fire dance. Daily life in Samoa involves building stick-and-leaf houses called fales, and children attend school to learn subjects like math, social sciences, and English, even while living on islands.
Samoan culture
The document discusses Samoan culture, including various art forms such as dance, dress, sport, and religion. It focuses on traditional tapa cloth, an art form unique to Samoa and other Pacific islands, made by pounding bark from mulberry or breadfruit trees into cloth and decorating it with patterns through techniques like rubbing, stamping, and dyeing. Tap cloth remains an important part of Samoan cultural identity.
Samoa animals
There are several unique animal species found in Samoa that cannot be found elsewhere. These include the Flying Fox bat, which lives in Samoa, Fiji and American Samoa and weighs around 450 grams with a 0.86 meter wingspan, feeding on fruit, leaves and nectar. The Frasers Dolphin grows to 2.75 meters and 200 kg as an adult after being born at 1 meter and 20 kg, with small flippers and fins relative to its body and diet of fish, shrimp and squid. Mesophlodont whales reach 3.9-6.2 meters, have a small dorsal fin and narrow flippers, and feed solely on squids while also being bitten by cookiecut
Samoan culture
The document discusses Samoan culture, highlighting several key aspects including traditional art forms. One such art form is tapa cloth, also known as siapo, which is made from bark and decorated using techniques like rubbing, stamping, and dyeing. Tapa cloth features patterns like triangles, flowers, and squares and is unique to Samoa as well as other Pacific islands like Fiji, Tonga, and Hawaii. The document concludes with photos of tapa cloth examples.
Ww1 map of gallipoli
The Battle of Gallipoli was a World War I campaign fought on the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey between Allied forces from Britain, France, and their dominions against the Ottoman Empire. Intending to secure a sea route to Russia, the Allies launched a naval attack followed by amphibious landings, but the naval attack was repelled and the eight-month land campaign ended in heavy casualties on both sides, forcing the Allies to withdraw. The failed Gallipoli campaign is commemorated annually in Australia and New Zealand on April 25th and was an important event in developing a sense of national identity in those countries.
Bees
This document provides facts about bees, including honey bees, worker bees, and queen bees. It discusses how honey bees have long provided humans with honey and wax from their hives. Worker bees make hives to store food throughout the winter. The queen bee is the largest bee in the hive and her pheromone output diminishes as she ages. The document concludes by thanking the viewer for learning about how bees build their hives and find food.
Bee project
A beehive can contain around 366 honeycombs. Each honeycomb holds approximately 50 millilitres of honey and measures 0.9 centimetres long. Bees obtain 0.2 millilitres of nectar from each flower they visit. Knowing the number of honeycombs per hive helps determine how much honey the hive produces.
Bee predators
Bees have developed defenses against their natural predators like hornets, wasps, and birds. Against hornets and wasps, bees swarm the attackers and raise their body heat to over 117 degrees Fahrenheit, effectively cooking the intruders alive. When faced with birds, bees are vulnerable during takeoff and landing, so birds swoop in to catch bees in mid-air for food. While seen as sweet, birds also kill bees and other insects.

- 1. Antarctica's last sunset for the year By Alex merrilees
- 3. WHAT? The last sunset for this year in Antarctica This is what it says on the title, but what they are trying to figure out is why the Antarctic ice is growing, while the arctic ice is shrinking They think it is because of supercooled water below the ice keeps it cold
- 4. WHO? A group of scientists from Otago university’s Department of Physics are researching why the ice is growing. Antarctic sea ice has reached record heights for the past three years
- 5. How? Heated water is being used to melt through 2.3m of ice so measurements can be made. 16 other instruments are being used to take other measurements of the ice.
- 6. Why? Why is this important? If global warming was happening the ice should be getting thinner not thicker. Why is all this happening well we don’t know YET…
