Oceans, Carbon & Climate — Chapter overview · Earth & Space Science, Grade 9
Connect climate evidence with ocean circulation, carbon budgets, and Earth-system feedbacks.
Chapter question
How can interactions among Earth systems change climate?
Units in this chapter
- Unit 6.1 · Climate & the Greenhouse Effect
I can distinguish between weather and climate.
- Unit 6.2 · Ocean Circulation & Climate
I can distinguish wind-driven surface circulation from density-driven movement.
- Unit 6.3 · Carbon Cycling & Earth-System Feedbacks
I can trace carbon among reservoirs and distinguish matter flow from energy flow.
- Unit 6.4 · Climate Evidence, Trends & Projections
I can interpret a temperature anomaly relative to a stated baseline.
