Alaska Melting Pot: Blog Reviews
http://alaskameltingpot.blogspot.com/2010/04/blog-reviews.html
Welcome to my first blog. This blog was created to participate in the course, Explore Alaska! Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Land and Climate. The main purpose for the blog is to use it as a posting board as I attempt to answer a weekly Essential Question. I look forward to reading other student responses in their blogs and in doing so, make valuable connections and applications in the classroom. Wednesday, April 14, 2010.

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...

Explore Alaska! - Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems: Module IX - Sea Level
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.

Explore Alaska! - Alaska Native and Western Perspectives on Earth's Systems: Module IX - Terrestrial Cryosphere Introduction
http://alaskaculturesgeosciences.blogspot.com/2010/03/module-ix-part-i-cryosphere-terrestrial.html
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.
