What are the parts of the sea floor? How and why is Earth constantly changing? How does the position of the Earth, Moon and Sun affect the tides? What is the importance of upwelling? How are waves used to transfer energy? Standards: HS-ESS1-5, HS-ESS2-1, HS-ESS2-5, HS-PS4-1 Time Frame: 3 Weeks Materials: Text: Marine Biology 8th Edition, Peter Castro, Michael E. Huber; McGraw Hill 2010 Oceanography lab kit, coloring supplies Content: As a result of this learning segment, students will know… The History and Current State of Marine Biology The Scientific Method Continental Drift Continental Margins Unique Properties of Water Ocean Circulation Waves and Tides Student Learning Objective (SLO): As a result of this learning segment, students will be able to… Explain how scientist collect, analyze, and use data using the scientific method. Tides are a function of the Earth - Sun - Moon system. Surface Currents allow movement of nutrients and are driven by wind. The spin of the Earth and the Coriolis Effect determine the pattern in which surface currents flow. Density Currents allow for upwelling. -The ocean has ridges and subduction zones where the ocean floor grows and shrinks. Water behaves differently depending upon if it is hot or cold and fresh or salty.

ESS2.B: Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions – The radioactive decay of unstable isotopes continually generates new energy within Earth’s crust and mantle providing the primary source of the heat that drives mantle convection. Plate tectonics can be viewed as the surface expression of mantle convection. ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earth’s Surface Processes - The abundance of liquid water on Earth’s surface and its unique combination of physical and chemical properties are central to the planet’s dynamics. These properties include water’s exceptional capacity
