Explore Alaska! - Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems: Module IX - Ice Sages
http://alaskaculturesgeosciences.blogspot.com/2010/03/module-ix-part-iii-ice-sages.html
Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Thursday, November 25, 2010. Module IX - Ice Sages. Imagine a mountain valley catching the moisture that falls within its boundaries and funnels it down into a lake sprawling across a low lying area. When the precipitation exceeds the capacity of the lake, it spills over into a river that flows down toward sea-level. Sounds reasonable and familiar. We've all seen it. When the lake of ice (ice field) fills to overflowing, the plastic. Whether indi...

http://alaskaculturesgeosciences.blogspot.com/2010/03/module-ix-part-iv-sea-level.html
Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Module IX - Sea Level. Glacier Ice- Sea Level. It is estimated that sea-level could rise as much as 80 meters. If all land ice melted and returned to the sea. How would you estimate the distribution of glaciers effects:. If all of Alaska's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters. If all of Greenland's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters. If all of Antarctica's glaciers melted, sea level would rise meters.

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Monday, November 29, 2010. Module IX - Terrestrial Cryosphere Introduction. How are climate, terrestrial ice and Alaskan indigenous cultures all connected? Changes in temperature along with changes in latitude, altitude, precipitation and the different heat capacities of land and water all interact to create the dynamic realm of terrestrial ice; glaciers, permafrost, rivers and lakes. Besides the science of how these complex systems interact, thi...

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Thursday, November 18, 2010. Module VIII - Phun Physics of Phase Change. Taku Glacier Ice Berg in Stephens Passage near Juneau, AK. Photo C.Good. Phun Physics of Phase Change - BLAB. Let's revisit our physics lesson a few modules back when we explored how thermal energy is transferred when water changes phase. However, in this case we are talking about the. Latent heat of fusion. Or heat energy exchange that occurs when freezing or thawing water.

Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems. Friday, November 26, 2010. Module IX - Ice Ages. Pleistocene epoch, ice age, interglacial period, last glacial maximum. It's all a bit confusing until we tease out what these different terms mean and how they help us understand the long history of terrestrial ice on Earth. The maximum extent of the last glaciation (. Occurred about 18,000 years ago. Thousands of years ago, Earth's climate was again beginning to warm for reasons related to. With j...
