Crossroads: Education through Spherical Projection Systems

Overview Content Format Module Details Advisory Group Kiosk Other Spherical Displays Evaluation

Content Global Climate Change Restless Earth Exploring Weather & Climate through Time Real-Time Planet Earth

Format Live public program –20 minute program for the general public Live school program –25-minute program for school children for grades 5 – 12 –aligned to national & Hawai‘i science content standards –Pre/post visit lessons working in partnership with DOE Automated program –4 to 8 minutes –Audio narration and music Kiosk mode

Global Climate Change Science and impacts of climate change Mitigation and adaptation efforts 2007 IPCC climate models (different scenarios) –temperatures –precipitation –sea level rise Environmental decision making

Earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis Historical and current Tools and technology –Seismics –Buoys –Satellites Restless Earth

Exploring Weather and Climate through Time Weather vs. climate Time scales –Daily weather –Seasons –El Nino –Global Warming –Glacial/ Interglacial

Real-Time Planet Earth Updated view of the planet in near real time Weather, precip, surface temp, sea surface temp NEW: wind speed and direction, ocean currents, degree-heating weeks, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunami propagation (more info at Imiloa).
