Arctic Dynamics

Students use a word bank filled with scientific terms like density, salinity, brine, and surface currents to complete detailed sentences. The worksheet focuses on how temperature and salinity drive Arctic water movement. It also explains how melting sea ice affects the circulation of ocean layers. The activity ties together climate change and ocean science.

This worksheet helps students apply vocabulary in a scientifically accurate context. They must read carefully to decide which term logically fits each sentence. This strengthens critical reading and reinforces understanding of Earth science processes. It also boosts their ability to interpret technical writing.
