Antarctica ice melting- Mathematical modeling lesson
Abstract: This lesson uses mathematical modeling to approximate the rise in sea level caused by the Antarctica ice sheet melting. Students must formulate questions and assumptions, compute answers, interpret in the context of the problem and then validate their model by assessing the reasonableness...
