High School Physics:
Follow that Bloom

Step 4: Predict Motion
Find the Plankton Bloom

A. Now use real-time data collected by COOLroom scientists to locate a hypothetical plankton bloom and predict its motion over a 24-hour period. Using live Ocean Surface Current Data, complete the "Find the Plankton Bloom" Worksheet.

1. Go to the latest Ocean Surface Current data in the COOLroom.
2. macpdf1a1
Download the "Find the Plankton Bloom" Worksheet and follow the instructions to find the plankton bloom.

B. Then check back the next day to see how well you predicted the location of the bloom.

1. Check the Ocean Surface Current data again in 24 hours to see if you predicted correctly.
