Atmospheric and Oceanic Concepts

Mumu Math and Science offers an educational course on Earth Science, focusing on oceanography and the atmosphere. The course covers the water cycle, ocean floor, atmospheric layers, heat transfer, global winds, weather fronts, hurricane formation, and water distribution. Each video includes worksheets, review questions, and enrichment activities. Students will learn about evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff, as well as the major features of the ocean floor and atmosphere. The course also explores global wind patterns, weather fronts, and the stages of hurricane development. A link to the playlist is provided for further learning.
