Wednesday, November 30th

Today in class...
  • Today we started our unit on oceanography. 
  • We talked a bit about the origins of the ocean as well as its composition. 
  • Our attention focused on the salinity or salt content of the ocean - where it comes from, where it goes, and how it is measured. 
  • For the last part of the class, we work with our Salinity Lab which we will finish next class period.
