8. ice cores Ice cores in areas such as Greenland, Antarctica, and other areas that are cold allows the snow to accumulate over the years and each new layer of snow compress the snow into ice. Though in these ice cores are air bubbles that contains a sample of the atmosphere during that snowfall. This allows climatologist determined how the climate has changed over time and reconstruct the temperatures of the time period and see how carbon dioxide have influenced the earth climate. With the air…

the Patagonian Ice Field and how global warming is affecting the glaciers as well as the affect the glaciers have and will have on the rest of the world. To begin I first must explain what a glacier is. A glacier is an immense field or stream of ice, formed in the region of continual snow, and moving slowly down a mountain slope or valley, as in the Alps, or over a large surface area, as in Greenland. They are formed over many years when snow is incessantly compressed into an ice sheet and…

The photograph example on page 417 at the beginning of Part 3 depicts the receding Athabasca Glacier in Alberta, Canada, in the Canadian Rockies. This photography uses elements of angle and orientation, people in scenes, and distance in order to convey the rising problem of global warning. The distant photo is divided into three horizontal bands- the blue sky, the snowy moutains, and the dirt road- but the focal point is the sign that reads, in two different languages English and French, "The…

Having fresh ice on hand is great for cooling down a drink of water, or icing all types of drinks. Portable models also have the added advantage of being usable anywhere you have a source of electric. There are some specifications that do make one model better than another. The Magic Chef 27 lb ice maker has features and functions that make it a popular portable ice maker. Here’s comprehensive review of the Magic Chef 27 lb ice maker. The Magic Chef 27 lb Ice Maker One of the best features of…

Biking through the blizzard in a flatland forest with my face red and frozen I’m listening to the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack when all of a sudden I find someone biking beside me, I take off my headphones to say hi, as he hears the song “to be human again” belting out of my headphones he laughs and proceeds, making me feel if I had said something wrong, once I get to school I realize he has told my entire class about me listening to disney and they all proceed to call me childish and gay,…

Popping An Ollie Physics Around Campus Ryan Meehan Physics 102 Spring 2017 This is a picture of me popping an ollie in the basement of Dooley Hall. An ollie is the first trick that many skaters learn, as it is the foundation for almost every other trick and can help skaters avoid obstacles such as small cracks and rocks that could ruin your day, and knees. The physics behind popping an ollie is very interesting, and after teaching my friends, and kids that I babysit how to skate…

experiment since I will be testing different methods of melting ice. The solution resulting from the experiment can be used throughout the world to make our roads safer. The literary reviews for this experiment are from two different sources, which both identify problems and potential solutions that relate to this experiment. Virginia’s Road Anti-Icing, Pre-Treatment, and De-Icing article addresses several treatment types, the dangers of black ice, and the different…

“Presently, 10 percent of land area on Earth is covered with glacial ice, including glaciers, ice caps, and the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica.” (nsidc.org). But, that is changing fast in the modern world. As the temperature of Erath has gone up in the last century. “Averaged over all land and ocean surfaces, temperatures have warmed roughly 1.33°F (0.74ºC) …” (globalclimate.ucr.edu). This has led to many wondering what the possible outcomes for the future of the planet. This is…

When it snows When it snows what comes to your mind? Maybe snow angels, maybe sledding, or hot chocolate. I love when it snows because I love winter. I like having to wear big jackets, scarfs, and boots. It usually feels like winter to me around the end of November or at the beginning of December. Snow makes me want to cozy up with a blanket in my warm pajamas and fuzzy socks and watch Christmas movies all day while drinking hot chocolate. In 2014 my family and I had a competition…

Molly and her other ice cube friends floated to the top of the cup once all of the water was in the cup, since the water was more dense than the ice cubes. Once the cup was filled the little boy brought the cup outside and set on the small play table. It was a warm sunny day, so Molly knew that at least another day had passed since she 'd been in the freezer. Molly Watched the little boy play out in the grass from her ice cube state. Since it was so warm outside the ice cubes began to melt in…
