Students will use the TAMMNET project and accompanying PolarTREC resources to learn about seismology in the Antarctic, culminating in the creation of an annotated map using google maps.
Objective:
Students will understand the different ways mountain ranges are formed, and appreciate the questions unanswered about the Transantarctic Mountains. Students will also appreciate the ingenuity required for doing research in
Over three months in Antarctica, PolarTREC teacher Juan Botella took hundreds of pictures a day.

The exhibit includes not only Botella’s pictures but artwork by four Monona Grove high school students and two recent graduates.
