Set me a challenge: What ocean/climate topic would you like to see a demonstration on?

Really! Let me know what demo you would like to see!

It’s officially almost Christmas and I am sure you are looking forward to a bit of a break over Christmas and New Year’s as much as I am. But do you know what I am most looking forward to? Having the time to play with oceanography-related experiments and demonstrations! I know my family is always happy to play, too, as are many of my friends.

So here is what I would like you to do: Set me a challenge!

What ocean / climate topic would you like to see an experiment or demonstration on? Is there anything you would really like to visualize for your students, kids, friends, but can’t think of how? Let me know in the comments below! And “like” other people’s comments if you want to see the demonstration they suggested! As soon as my break starts, I’ll get myself, family and friends to work on the most popular topic, so I can show you a brand new demonstration by January, 1st, to start off 2015 in style.

Don’t forget to share, so your colleagues and friends also get a say in what demo they would like to see! I’m excited to see what I’ll be working on over the break! :-)

    I guess it ought to work just as well with salty water as with alcohol!
    Have a great day – and thanks again for a good blog!

  2. 1) Why and how do clouds “climb” up mountains, and then demonstrate why it starts to rain when they do that.

  3. […] Folks, before we are all off to our well-deserved breaks (and I am starting my blogging break early because, you know, life and work and that kind of stuff): Take a moment to head over to this post and leave a comment to set me a challenge: What kind of ocean/climate phenome… […]

  4. Mensch, was ein Stress ;)
    Ok, my wishes:
    1. a good demo for the Ekman Spiral :)
    2. a visual for why humid air is lighter than dry air
    3. a method to effectively (and efficiently) teach biology students the use of T-S diagrams (ok ok, not really an experiment, would still be grateful for tips…)
    4. a demonstration of western boundary intensification without a rotating tank
    Have fun and enjoy the christmas break!
