A trip to the Chena Hot Springs in Fairbanks, Alaska. There are images from the ice museum, greenhouses, and geothermal power plant. Video taken by Liz Ratliff, IceCube In Ice Antarctic Telescope 2012 expedition
This PolarConnect event was conducted with PolarTREC teacher Claude Larson, and members of the research team that she worked with on the Prehistoric Human Response to Climate Change 2010 project in Kamchatka, Russia.
In this lesson students research scientific field expeditions and learn what it is like working in the field. Students are able to ask questions of the research team as part of their project. Students then share what they have learned with their classmates.
Objective
1. Students understand what really goes on in the field during a scientific study.
