Oceans and Atmosphere Curiosity Questions

Instructions Write your name, date and period # at the top of your paper. View the questions on the upcoming slides. Choose a question you are interested in. WRITE THE QUESTION ON YOUR PAPER. Use Google to find out what you can about the answer to that question. If you have time, pick another question and research it. If you have a question of your own, check with your teacher if you can research it, and if so, follow the above directions.

Atmosphere Questions Is the Earth really getting warmer? What evidence says it is not? Could the Earth really get as warm as Venus (900 degrees!) because of greenhouse gases? What actions are we doing to reduce air pollution? Is it helping? Why have aerosol (spray) cans been banned? How do they affect the ozone layer? Could we establish an atmosphere on Mars? How would we do it?

Ocean Questions Find two examples of bioluminescent creatures and compare and contrast them. What new technology is being used to explore the ocean? How do underwater volcanoes affect the ocean and lands around them? Are there any warm areas of water at the bottom of the ocean? Why? What kinds of lifeforms can exist in the Mariana Trench?
