Miracle on Ice Michael Arbuiso is probably the best ice hockey player ever. He is the caption of his high school hockey team and he is a legend the NHL is waiting for. Michael can score,pass,check,you name it. In his junior year Michael set a record that Sidney Crosby or John Tavares hadn’t set in their career yet, 100 goals,97 assists,in just 82 games.…
There are leaders and followers in this world the leaders go and do different things than other people. But followers do the things that leaders do, but not as well. Leaders lead and show how they can do thing without anyone’s help, I also call that an MVP.we would not be able to live without leaders in this world. In a book I read Surviving Antarctica, there are five teens that are traveling to the South Pole, “like scott and his men” to risk their lives to get MVP, when you get MVP you get $90,000 but either way you get $10,000 if you live. Robert deserves MVP because he leaded most of the way to the South Pole, and much more.…
I. Science fair Question What material will make ice melt fastest? II. Background Research Did you ever wonder what makes ice melt fastest? This research paper is going to talk about how ice melt works.…
The peak of our most recent ice age ended only 15,000 years ago. The earth warmed rapidly up until about 6,000 years ago. Was this from anthropogenic addition of c02? Obviously not. Earth continued to warm bringing us to the mideival warm period about 1000AD .…
“Miracle on Ice” On February 22, 1980 history was made. In the midst of the tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, Team U.S.A managed to beat the U.S.S.R. team in a fierce hockey game during the XIII Winter Olympic Games. Due to the numerous American defeats throughout the entirety of the Cold War, ranging from the conflicts at Vietnam, the U2 incident, and the vast spread of communism, “The Miracle on Ice” boosted American morale towards the fight against the Soviet Union at a time when they needed it most.…
Within this content, there are certain topics that relate to the film “Chasing Ice” such as, the impacts of global warming and the annual global temperature rise. The content suggests, that although no one can exactly forecast the exact effects on the increased temperature, “some experts have predicted severe droughts and a rise in ocean leaves of 0.6 meters (2 feet) to 6 meters (20 feet)- conditions that will affect everyone on Earth” (Hales, & Lauzon, 2018). James Balog has also agreed with this, predicting that in his “daughter's lifetimes sea levels will increase between 1.5-3 feet” (----------). The concept also distributes more information on the annual temperature increase. James Balog hypothesizes that this temperature increase is one of the major factors in glacier recession.…
For the National History Day Project, I decided to research the topic of “The Miracle on Ice”. Since I love to play and watch hockey, I thought this would be an ideal topic. The first thing I needed to do was to research the topic. I conducted my study by doing a search on my safari browser of both my iPad and computer. To locate sources, I typed the following words into my search: Miracle, on ice, facts, history.…
Scientists rely on Paleoclimatic Proxy records to reconstruct variability and climate patterns at the 1000 year scale. Some climate patterns have been observed in the paleo record that are not necessarily operating today. Cores from ice,coral reefs, ocean and lake sediments can provide a lot of information such as temperature, precipitation, chemical composition of air or water and etc. 10,000…
In the article “Hot Spots in a Freezing Ocean Offer lessons in Climate Change” talks about how climate change can affect the animals in Antarctica. Gail V. Ashton, a marine ecologist, and his colleagues predicted that in 50 years the Southern ocean will increase temperatures by 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit and in a 100 years the ocean will gain 3.6 degree Fahrenheit. In June 2015, Ashton started an experiment to determine what will happen to the aquatic animals if we heated the ocean. First, Ashton’s team was able to place three panels underwater, on the coast of Antarctica. Each panel was able to increase the temperature of the water by 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit.…
No child is born a delinquent. They only become that way if nobody loved them when they were kids. Unloved children grow up to be serial murderers or alcoholics (Jeannette Walls). Richard Kuklinski, aka the Ice Man, had committed about 200 murderers by shooting, stabbing, strangling, and poisoning his victims. Sometimes freezing his victims, disguising their time of death, which giving him his name, the Ice Man.…
Growing up in Michigan has been a dream come true. The sights and sounds of the Upper Peninsula are something out of a picture book. Looking out your living room window and overlooking one of the Great Lakes is something not everyone gets to experience. Moving away brought me to another great lake, another beautiful view, and more sights to see. Living in Michigan is like a never-ending tour of sightseeing.…
Since the split up of the Soviet Union in the early 90's, Russia has been fighting to claim back many of its old territories in Asia, Europe and the Far North. The world has seen this in March's annexation of Crimea, and multiple invasions of Ukraine and Georgia in the last two years. What the world hasn't seen, however, is the military movements that Russia has kept under wraps since: the militarization and potential annexation of Arctic seas and lands. These claims and occupations of UN proclaimed “neutral” arctic territories have not gone unnoticed, or unmatched, by other world powers; countries with Arctic borders such as Canada and the USA have been slowly getting involved over the last ten years. Whether they are entering the dispute…
Increasing temperature, ocean acidification, and melting and refreezing of the Arctic Glaciers are three concepts that prove why global warming is occurring. Increasing temperature will be the first topic of discussion. The temperature of the Earth has been on a steep incline from past years. “Carbon dioxide production has increased 30% since the last Industrial Revolution” (NASA 2017).…
Does the type of liquid affect how fast an ice cube melts? Does the type of liquid affect how fast an ice cube melts? In an experiment (not ours) involving three liquids, pop melted the ice within it the fastest out of the three. Molecules cause ice to melt in a pretty simple way. When salt is thrown on snow or ice, it prevents the ice or snow from freezing over once again.…
“According to the EPA in the last hundred years the sea level has about risen six to eight inches” (Hohensee). The ice caps are melting at an increasing rate, this is due to the increase in the global temperature. The melting ice is causing ocean and rivers to have a rise in water. The increase in oceans is causing beaches to erode faster. Due to this many coastal cities and factories have faced issue with increased storms and flooding.…
