Antarctica

Antarctica contains the world’s highest ice sheet. Evidence of climate change can be found throughout the world including in the Antarctic. While Antarctic and global climate have continued to change over years, it is the rate of climate change is still…

In Luc Jacquet's March of the Penguins we get to follow emperor penguins as they make their annual march to their breeding grounds in Antarctica. We get to see how penguins court each other and how penguin chicks are dependent upon the participation of both parents in order to survive it's first few months. While the movie shares some compelling facts about the penguins it also distorts the viewers in the way that it's narrated. Does the documentary shares similarities to Flaherty's Nanook of…

to gear for all your adventures,” I countered. “Yeah because I have never suggested Antarctica,” he said raising his voice. Trying to avoid a fight, I said calming, “I will find a way to get the gear.” “Okay then,” my friend said, raising his hands defensively. Somehow I was able to get the gear for us to be able to travel while in Antarctica. I also called a travel agency and got a pilot to fly us to Antarctica. We traveled across the ocean when devastation struck. Sirens blared, my friends…

Above Antarctica there is a hole in the ozone layer. The hole in the ozone layer is caused by the greenhouse gases and pollution in the air which can be attributed to humans according to Sigmond and Fyfe (2014). The ozone layer is a layer of the stratosphere on…

or the aftereffects. The explosion caused fires that raged across the country, slowly roasting the old world into ashes. America was destroyed, but what became of the rest of the world? Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, Australia, and even Antarctica have also felt the effects of the explosion. It caused earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other natural disasters around the world. However, somewhere in the frozen wasteland once known as America, a man and his son are determined to carry…

1. The patterns for the different parameters depend on the season. Atmospheric temperature is always the high in July due to summer. For instance, the atmospheric temperature in Virginia was nearly 0°C in January 2000 but rose to about 25°C in July 2000. This makes sense because temperatures are low in January and high in July. The temperatures started dropping again around October because of the change in season. The amount of precipitation depends on the region. Regions near the ocean…

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Climate Change is a huge drastic problem in the world and is a common political debate. This issue has definitely one obvious side. Climate Change is man made. In Australia, flashing flooding, random weather events and droughts are common and it is all due to human influence. Seventy years ago, Australia was commonly seen with nice weather. Unfortunately, Climate Change has altered everything. Climate Change is man made because of the hole in the ozone layer…

tundra biome is the coldest biome and covers about 20% of the earth. It is also the driest place on earth and only gets an average of ten inches of rain per year. In the summer time, it does not get dark, it is daylight 24 hours a day. Even though Antarctica is not in the Arctic Circle it is still considered to be part of the tundra biome since the temperature is so severe. The tundra biome does not have that many trees because grow because there is a…
