Climate is what you expect, and weather is what you get. Climate is about long-term records, trends, and averages; weather is about day-to-day experiences. Introduces us to the basics and science of meteorology from its earliest theoretical and observational development to the invention of equipment (the thermometer, barometer, and hygrometer) that led to meteorology becoming a science.
The scientific method is the foundation of work for scientists. Explains the scientific method in detail serving as the basis for your science fair project. The process of creating a science fair project along with helpful hints for success is described. Other terminology includes: hypothesis, experiment, data, conclusion, data table, and graphing.
Students explore the relationship between observations and measuring things in science. Specific ways of measuring length, mass, volume, and temperature are demonstrated using tools common to the classroom. Other terminology includes unit of measurement, meter stick, metric ruler, balance, graduated cylinder, and thermometer.
How is meteorological information interpreted? A team takes a close up look at the methods, devices, and equipment used to generate, transmit, and process the information for the weather forecast. Part of Invisible Science and Technology Surrounding Series.
Energy is all around and in many forms. Real-life examples of energy provide relevance and meaning to students. Special emphasis is paid to heat energy and how it can be measured. Concepts and terminology explored include energy of motion, light, sound, electrical energy, heat, and thermometer.
Introduces the concept that everything is made of matter, and examines the three states of matter. Defines and examines a range of solids, liquids, and gases. Uses graphics to show the effects of heat on atoms and molecules in solids. Summarizes each segment.
In this chapter, other scientists from Kazakhstan will challenge the House of Science Scientists. During the challenge, the scientist answer the question does the temperature at which water or other fluids boil change according to the altitude of the geographical place? Part of the House of Science Series.
A team conducts different experiments with food substances to show the chemical reactions that take place when exposed to air, heat, or extreme cold. They provide a close up on cooking technology and food chemistry from the kitchen of a restaurant. Part of Invisible Science and Technology Surrounding Series.
This video explores the daily condition of the Earth's atmosphere, and the factors that influence and cause weather. Special emphasis is given to the global processes that generate weather patterns. Other topics covered include conduction, convection, radiation, thermometer, barometer, air pressure, winds, anemometer, sea breeze, land breeze, doldrums, trade winds, prevailing westerlies, polar easterlies, and jet streams.
The transfer of heat is one of the fundamentals of scientific inquiry. Using numerous examples of how heat transfer is used in everyday life, this program takes students on a journey through the mechanisms and practicalities of heat transfer, clearly explaining the mechanisms of conduction, convection, and radiation and introducing the concept of thermal capacity of an object.
Anything that takes up space or has mass is matter. Under certain conditions matter can be a solid, liquid, gas or plasma. Different states of matter can be combined in suspensions, and solutions and mixtures can be taken apart. Exploring the physical and chemical properties of matter provides insight into nature and a glimpse at how scientists and engineers use this knowledge to shape our world.
Features different systems of measurement and their value to science in five separate segments. Stardust Elements: Looks at the life cycles of stars and explains how the death of a star seeds the universe with all the elements of the periodic table. End of Dinosaurs: Debates several scientific theories about why and how dinosaurs became extinct. Earthly Thermometers: Demonstrates how the Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin scales measure the same thing in different ways and why we need precise measurements of temperature. Frozen in Time: Pieces together the past of a 5,300-year-old man whose body was preserved in ice in the Italian Alps. Hurricanes Take the Heat: Follows researchers who study how hurricanes form and try to predict where the next one will strike.
