Covering 70% of the Earth&#8217;s surface, the ocean plays a major role in our climate, weather, and living conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Schools &#8220;adopt&#8221; a drifter equipped with climate sensors.  Students participate in a contest to deploy their school&#8217;s drifter at sea. As the drifter is carried along ocean currents, it measures and transmits sea surface temperature data and positioning coordinates via satellite.  The currents carry heat from place to place, which affects the climate on our planet. <\/p>\n<p>Drifters help track:  hurricanes, pollutants, species migration, and marine debris.<br \/>\nDrifters help monitor:  ocean climate, which is affected by temperature, circulation, and salinity.<\/p>\n<p>Students follow their adopted drifter online and analyze the near real time sea surface temperature data in their classrooms.  Just as ocean scientists, they track the full global ocean drifter array.<\/p>\n<p>Download it in high resolution:<br \/>\n[Quicktime, 1280&#215;720, 30fps, file size 613 MB]<br \/>\nRight-click link below, select option to &#8220;save as&#8221; or download the linked file.<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/bit.ly\/IAubbP<\/p>\n<p>Also downloadable from:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.adp.noaa.gov\/earthday<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ea5SaeVFzgY\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adopt a Drifter B-roll NOAA Contacts: Madelyn Appelbaum, 202-482-4858, 202-340-6310 cell or John Ewald, 202-482-3978, 240-429-6127 cell To mark Earth Day 2012, students are deploying NOAA drifters, or floating ocean &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=109306\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9472],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-109306","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-weather","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=109306"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109306\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=109306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=109306"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=109306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
