The
New
Millennium
Observatory
(NeMO)
is
a
seafloor
observatory
off
the
coast
of
Oregon,
which
studies
the
relationships
between
submarine
volcanic
events
and
the
chemistry
and
distribution
of
hydrothermal
vents
and
the
biologic
communities
that
depend
on
them.
The
research
activities
at
NeMO
provide
an
extraordinary
educational
opportunity,
both
from
the
daily
reports
from
expeditions
at
sea
and

and
Science
Education
(CIESE)
program,
which
has
developed
internet
activities
for
the
elementary,
middle,

school
level
student.
Students
measure
the
temperature,
record
the
number
of
minutes
of
sunlight
per
day
over
a
predetermined
week,
and
determine
their
global
coordinates.
Each

Natural
indicators
of
climate
change,
such
as
melting
glaciers,
changes
in
time
of
flowering
of
trees
in
spring,
and
bird
migrations
are
excellent
indicators
of
long-term
changes
in
climate.
The
behavior
of
animals
and
the
characteristics
of
plants
can
be
biological
proxies
for
long-term
scientific
measurements.
They
are
an
accumulated
response
to
long-term
shifts
in
the
surroundings,
and

This
resource
provides
an
overview
of
the
concept
of
global
warming,
which
is
thought
to
be
due
to
man-made
emissions
of
greenhouse
gases,
which
are
largely
a
result
of
the
burning
of
fossil
fuels
and
deforestation.
It
explores
the
possibility
that
the
impacts
of
global
warming
may
include
desertification
and
the
destruction
of
other
ecosystems,
extreme
weather
conditions,
and
a
danger
to
agriculture.

biome
such
as
temperature,
precipitation,
vegetation,
location,
description
and
