The Ocean World team has gone all over the web and the world gathering information to present students with the latest in oceanography information and topics. Looking for some real time data information on El Nino? They've got it! (Check out our El Nino topic section). What about expanding your knowledge of ocean currents? This is the right place! (check out our Currents topic section). Each topic section is organized so that you can find the information you need quickly and easily. Each section contains quick links to various points in the topic's pages, as well as pictures, real-time or near-time data links, and further information website links. Associated with each of the background information sections are five Classroom Activities built on the common themes of: Systems and Structures, Energy, Change, Interactions, and Measurement. These Classroom Activities are intended to be a starting off point to mold or change to fit your the needs of a K-12 science class.
