The video documents impacts of thermal expansion and melting of ice sheets and glaciers on coastal communities
The video also shows the ways that sea level rise is documented. These include the use of sediment core data and satellite data to document rate of sea level rise in the past.
The video also describes a laboratory model that examines how warming ocean currents reach Antarctica to contributing to the melting of ice sheets.
References to projected sea level rise in the coming decades is a highly dynamic field. Estimates change as research progresses and teachers need to be aware of this.
This video can be embedded in a lesson or activity that explores issues of ocean circulation, the melting of continental ice sheets, and how they impact sea level rise.
