PASSPORT TO WEATHER AND CLIMATE

What if students could understand fronts and pressure systems while flying on a C-130 turboprop through the eye of a hurricane?

What if they could make lightning, safely, in class and connect the weather they see around them to the best resources on the World Wide Web?

Some of the world's leading meteorologists and storm chasers take us with them into the eye of a hurricane, trace the origins of tornadoes, and attempt to link Earth's past weather and climate with possible future global conditions.

Engaging and informative videos are just the beginning. Once students are excited by amazing images, teacher-tested hands-on activities bring the scientific principles home to your classroom, and online resources connect students to researchers, other students and information from around the world.
