 * // Scientific Educational Resources And Experience Associated with the Deployment of Argo Drifting Floats in the South Pacific Ocean. //**

An organisation supported by: ³ ** NIWA ** ³ ** NOAA ** ³ ** ARGO (Scripps Institute of Technology) ** ³ ** UNESCO ** ³ ** SOPAC - IOC / IOC Perth PIGOOS. ** ³ ** NASA ** ³ ** POGO ** ³ ** IOI ** ** Goal : ** // To generate substantial knowledge, awareness and discussion among Pacific Island students, teachers and communities of the global ocean observing systems, climate change, sea level rise, global warming and local impacts //

** Objectives : ** v //Provide a teaching resource that compliments the current teaching curriculum and demonstrates the value of scientific knowledge through realistic and locally relevant applications.// v //Teach students the fundamental measurements that describe the physical state of the ocean (temperature, salinity, ocean current), and the exchanges between the ocean and atmosphere of heat, water, and momentum.// v //Develop teaching resources that use data gathered by the Argo program.// v //Facilitate the interactions between scientists, students and teachers.//

This is a site for teachers who are interested in resources for teaching aspects of Climate Change to primary and secondary students.
