Ocean Chemistry & Global Climate
In this video, Dr. Rachel Phillips goes over how the oceans formed and became salty, how their salt content has changed through time and space, how nutrients are cycled in the oceans, and how gases are cycled between the ocean and atmosphere.

Bridge DATA - The Oyster Calculator
Working in groups, students will design a small-scale oyster farm and use NOAA's online calculator to predict how much nitrogen their operation will remove from the surrounding water over a growing season. Resource type: website, reference.
Monterey Bay Aquarium [Live Cam]
Be delighted by the antics of our sea otters or mellow out to the hypnotic drifting of our jellies. Experience the wonder of the ocean no matter where you are.
EV Nautilus: Seamount Formation [Animation]
Did you know that underwater mountains are called seamounts? This teaching animation explains how seamounts- and related features like guyots -are formed by geological processes by examining the Hawaiian Island Chain.
EV Nautilus: Ocean Drifters [Animation]
Ocean drifters measure currents and other parameters, such as temperature and salinity, to further deepen our understanding of the oceanic environment. Resource type: website, reference.
Science and the Sea [Podcast]
Science and the Sea is a radio program presents marine science topics in an engaging two-minute story format. Resource type: website, reference.
What Will a Warmer, More Acidic Ocean Mean for American Lobsters? [StoryMap]
Virginia Sea Grant has created a ArcGIS StoryMap based on a research program looking at the impact of climate change on the physiology of the American Lobster. Content includes background information about ocean acidification, American lobster and the research intself.
Bridge DATA - Sea Nettles: What Are the Chances?
In this exercise, students will use both both forecasting tools and buoy data to determine the temperature and salinity ranges most likely to result in a bloom of nettles in the Bay. Resource type: website, reference.
NOAA National Marine Sanctuaries Ocean Acidification Resource Collection
The ocean absorbs the extra carbon dioxide we emit into the atmosphere when we burn fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and natural gas, and that changes the chemistry of the ocean. Resource type: website, reference.
NOAA National Marine Sanctuaries 50th Anniversary Resource Collection
Xplore 12 curated collections of NOAA videos, lesson plans, webinars, web stories, virtual reality, and much more. Resource type: website, reference.
