EART10 Geologic Principles Lecture #14 Glaciers and Ice Ages Humans are performing a unique experiment, testing the effects on global climate of releasing vast amount of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons and methane into the atmosphere. These "greenhouse" gasses are known to trap heat in the atmosphere and their abundance in the atmosphere is growing exponentially. Scientists monitoring this experiment predict a 1 to 3 degree increase in globally averaged temperature in the next century. Attendant with higher temperatures are a reduction in the volume of the water presently stored in glaciers and the polar ice caps, and changes to the wind and ocean circulation systems that will affect the distribution of precipitation on land. Residence times of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere are on the order of hundreds of years, so even if we shut down the experiment today, the effects would continue to be felt for some time. The predictions for global warming on based on observations and modeling of climate. Earth's climate systems are enormously complex. Unraveling the manifold interactions between components of the system is difficult and only partially completed. One way in which scientists examine the system is by examining the past. Earth's climate has been variable throughout the planet's 4.55 Ga history. Many aspects of past climates are recorded in geologic strata and surface deposits. Geologist are reading that record, in the process learning much more about Earth's climate than could be gleaned from historic records alone.

188. Electronic Desktop Project - Virtual Earthquake Welcome to Virtual Earthquake. Virtual Earthquake is an interactiveWebbased activity designed to introduce you to the concepts http://www.sciencecourseware.com/VirtualEarthquake/

Welcome to Virtual Earthquake Virtual Earthquake is an interactive Web-based activity designed to introduce you to the concepts of how an earthquake EPICENTER is located and how the RICHTER MAGNITUDE of an earthquake is determined. The Virtual Earthquake program is running on a Web Server at California State University at Los Angeles. You can interact with Virtual Earthquake NEW : A completely revised version of Virtual Earthquake can be found HERE . This new applet-based version is more inquiry-based than the original version and contains tools so instructors can assess student learning. Currently it runs only under IE on PCs. (After you complete Virtual Earthquake, check out the Geology Labs On-Line home page for the latest information about project activities. Activities about age dating, river discharge and river flooding are available.) Instructors: here is some important information Virtual Earthquake will show you the recordings of an earthquake's seismic waves detected by instruments far away from the earthquake. The instrument recording the seismic waves is called a
