MOTION OF THE OCEAN Ocean and Weather Phenomena  Can you actually see changing tides?  What is the difference between a tidal wave and tsunami?  What are the rivers of the ocean?  Does movement of Earth cause waves?  How does the ocean impact the weather?  How does the weather impact the ocean?  How does the ocean impact climate? We will be reviewing tides, currents, waves and weather Reminder: Citizen Science Scientific Investigation must be placed in my Workspace folder

MOTION OF THE OCEAN - TIDES Focus: What causes tides? Are tides the same around the world? What factors shape the tides and their periodicity? Watch: The Endless Voyage: Ebb and Flow Notes: The Tides (from the video and the text) For the text you must cite specific page #’s using chapter 10 Focus: What causes tides? Are tides the same around the world? What factors shape the tides and their periodicity? Watch: The Endless Voyage: Ebb and Flow Notes: The Tides (from the video and the text) For the text you must cite specific page #’s using chapter 10

CITIZEN SCIENCE5/23/2016 Objectives:Count and contribute to the study of taxa on the beach on the health of Puget Sound for Citizen Science Project Investigate your testable question Field Trip:Beach Monitoring(Saltwater Park)

SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION REPORT 5/24/2016 Objectives:Collaborate and divide the work to develop a presentation of your Scientific Beach Investigation Stamp:The Tides for Unit 5 (see the following slides to check your answers) Homework:Review the Tides on this PPT on Swift Project:Scientific Beach Investigation Presentation Today: Review requirements (next slide) Begin developing presentation Tuesday 5/31: Complete and practice presentation (Library Collaboration Stations) Thursday 6/1:Citizen Science Symposium The Presentation/Project will be counted for both formative and summative grades. Individual grades will be adjusted according to participation.

SCIENTIFIC BEACH INVESTIGATION You need to use the following resources:  Outlines: Report, Framework, Rubric  Your Data and Methods sheet from Beach Investigation  Camera/Cell Phone downloads of pictures and/or Google Images  Internet for Puget Sound habitats and taxa  Documents (CS folder in S-Drive Outbox)  Citizen Science Research Report Guidelines  Citizen Science Student Presentation Framework  Rubric for Scientific Beach Presentation Report  Resources: Manual and Text and Internet Key Taxa Power Point in S-Drive Outbox CS folder  Examples of Presentations in S-Drive Outbox

MOTION OF THE OCEAN Tides – done?? 1. What causes them and why can they happen? Gravitational pull of the sun and moon. Water is fluid and flows (fluid dynamics) 2. Compare the equilibrium theory to the dynamic theory of tides. Equilibrium theory is based on a uniform Earth, no continents and no tilt whereas the dynamic theory takes those factors into account to predict tides 3. What kind of tides do we experience during new moon and full moon? Spring tides (largest ones) are formed because the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun are acting together in one direction. When the Sun and Moon are perpendicular to each other and the Earth, the lowest tides are formed, called neap tides.

TIDES 4. What is the periodicity of tides around the world and why? Tides are diurnal, semidiurnal and mixed This is due to the continents, there shapes and the travel of tides from west to east. 5. What increases the magnitude, speed and height, of tides in estuaries and bays? The bays and estuaries constrict the space within which the tides can travel. Water goes from wide open space to restricted space and the energy does not change so the tide becomes more dynamic and can be seen as tidal waves. 6. What would happen to the Earth’s climate if we had no tides? The water would not mix as well and the warm waters of the tropics would not mix with the ice cold polar waters which would cause the climates to become colder with resulting continental glaciers. Think “Day After Tomorrow.”

MOTION OF THE OCEAN5/25/2016 Objectives: Describe the characteristics of waves and how waves of the ocean are created and their impact Done?#1 The Tides (Cloze Notes) –did you check in the ppt schedule? Check: Ebb and Flow (did you actually watch? – let’s check) Important Note: Be sure you are doing your part for the Citizen Science Scientific Investigation data by the end of the day Watch:The Endless Voyage: Surf’s Up (about waves) Assignment:#2 Waves Notes Cloze Activity w/ video and text chapter 10 (some questions have no text references) Notes:Keep all Cloze Activity Notes for the Unit in your file folder Contest!!Which period will have the highest % complete with approval stamp on Waves tomorrow?

MOTION OF THE OCEAN5/26/2016 Objectives:Detail how ocean currents develop and sustain Describe the motion of currents and where they exist in the ocean Explain the effects of currents Check in:Scientific Beach Investigation Is everyone doing their part?

WAVES 1. Are the waves really moving water from one place to another? What is actually being transferred? No, it is energy 2. What causes tsunamis? movements of earth’s crust such as earthquakes tidal waves are waves made by the moon and sun 3. What determines the characteristics of surface waves? the strength or speed of the wind; the area over which the wind blows; the length of time the wind blows 4. What do internal waves do regarding temperatures of the water and nutrients? they mix the water and distribute the nutrients

MOTION OF THE OCEAN 5/27/2015 Objectives:Describe the formation and dynamics of weather systems Explain how currents interact with the atmosphere to create the weather Video Check:Currents Review:Currents (see slide) Stamp:Currents Activity:Coriolis effect View:Something in the Air Notes:Weather Cloze Activity for video & chapter 8 Homework:All cloze activity notes due for CCS Tuesday Entire folder due Friday, June 3

CURRENTS 1. To what are ocean currents likened and what do the transport? Rivers that carry heat and nutrients 2. What produces currents? Prevailing winds, variation in density and sea level changes 3. How do currents affect climate? Current temperatures modify the atmosphere continuously as they interface with it and persist for centuries 4. What factors produce thermohaline currents at depth? Variations in salt and temperature 5. What factors control the direction of currents? Coriolis effect, change in ocean bottom, land masses 6. Where does deep water circulation originate? The poles
