Ozone Pollution: Smog Alert
Students explain ozone pollution and make them aware of how it is formed. They simulate the development of smog and infer how it occurs in nature.
Curated OER
Linkages Between Surface Temperature And Tropospheric Ozone
High schoolers organize and analyze data regarding changes in tropospheric ozone and then hypothesize about the consequences of these changes.
Curated OER
Ozone Pollution: Smog Alert
Students simulate the development of smog. They discover how it forms naturally in nature. They read news articles about the ozone and pollution. They discuss what they can do to lower the pollution they generate.
