AC9S10U04
Earth and space sciences
use models of energy flow between the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere to explain patterns of global climate change
Elaborations
- AC9S10U04_E1examining the role of radiation from the sun and how its interactions with the atmosphere, ocean and land are the foundation for the global climate system
- AC9S10U04_E2investigating indicators of climate change such as changes in ocean and atmospheric temperatures, sea levels, biodiversity, species distribution, permafrost and sea ice
- AC9S10U04_E3identifying changes in global climate over time, exploring visualisations and using simulations to explore why energy balances have changed
- AC9S10U04_E4examining the factors, including energy, that drive deep ocean currents, their role in regulating global climate and their effects on marine life
- AC9S10U04_E5investigating how quantum computers enhance modelling of complex weather and climate systems
- AC9S10U04_E6predicting changes to the Earth system and identifying strategies designed to reduce climate change or mitigate its effects
