2 BSCS: curriculum developers Carbon Connections: The Team Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB): production and web design specialists Advisory Board Members Field-test teachers, students
3 Carbon Connections: What It Is On-line 3-unit module 5 lessons per unit Hands-on investigations Links concepts of the carbon cycle with the science of climate Units 1-3: carbon and climate in past, current, future Target audience: grades 9-12 (.adjusting to 9 ) Biology (Gen, Honors, IB, AP) Earth Sciences or Geology Environmental Sciences (APES) Time: 3-4 weeks of instruction Password-protected, dedicated online teacher support
4 On-line Units
5 Carbon Connections: Project Goals Enhancing teacher and student understandings of models and systems-thinking, the global carbon cycle, and the science of climate, Investigating and analyzing data from NASA and other scientists, Increasing student interest in science and STEM fields, Learning about the role of NASA in monitoring Earth systems, and Increasing the ability of student-citizens to make decisions about contemporary issues in science.
6 Carbon Connections: Timeline Timeline: 3 Web-based Modules Phase 1 F M A M J J A S O N D J F M A M J J A S O N D J F M Planning, Refining Concept First Advisory Board Meeting Develop, Review, Test Prototypes Develop, Review, Revise All Modules Phase 2 We Are Field Test Orientations (OR, CO) Here Field Test, Collect Data, Video Shoots Analyzed FT Data, Internal Eval Phase 3 Second Advisory Board Meeting Revise Modules based on FT Results Finalize, Disseminate, Ext. Eval
7 Carbon Connections: Field-Test Spring, 2011 Tens of teachers, thousands of students Primary teachers workshop Secondary teacher as-is, no workshop Used in 40 states, Singapore, China, Brazil

19 3. Empirical Climate Model Investigate climate variation vs. climate warming Empirical Climate Model (ECM) with monthly resolution - Complements Global Climate Model (GCM) Lean and Rind (GRL, 2008; 2009) 4 Climate Forcings EVSA El Niño/ La Niña cycles E Volcanic aerosols V Solar irradiance S Anthropogenic A Students test forcings to explain the global temperature record
20 Black Green Red Test Forcings in Climate Model observed T record best-fit model adjustable model, simulation
21 YOU can test scenarios Claim #1: climate change is explained by variation in solar irradiance. what forcing(s) would you change in the model? Is the claim accurate, less-informed, or outrageous? Claim #2: Humans are solely responsible for changes in global climate. what forcing(s) would you change in the model? Is the claim accurate, less-informed, or outrageous?
22 YOU can test scenarios Claim #3: climate change can be explained by natural forcings. what forcing(s) would you change in the model? Is the claim accurate, less-informed, or outrageous? Claim #4: climate change can be explained by ENSO and VOLC what forcing(s) would you change in the model? Is the claim accurate, less-informed, outrageous?
