Rap video showing the three types of clouds. The video also addresses the Water Cycle (where clouds come from). The song shows photos of cumulus, cirrus, stratus and nimbus clouds while referring to them in the lyrics. Student art work is also included in the video. Run time 04:10
Clouds are formed by parcels of rising air that cool and create tiny droplets of water. Learn about dew points and how they affect moisture going from a gas to a liquid with help from a meteorologist in this video on understanding weather. Run time 01:02.
If you observe clouds in a portion of the sky, you may notice that they are not static. Clouds are composed of tiny particles of water and are constantly changing and moving. In this video produced for Teachers' Domain, observe clouds forming, moving, and changing shape. No narration. Set to music with a few words on the screen. Run time 01:33.
This is a short, well-done, one-minute video explaining what a watershed is and why it's important which was created for the EPA Water Quality Video Contest.
Water springs are created when water is filtered through permeable rock in the ground and then flows downhill until it reaches ground level. Learn about how water springs work with tips from a math and science teacher, Steve Jones. There are English captions.
From the mountains to the coast, this series focuses on the water system known as the Connecticut River, one of 10 designated American Heritage Rivers. Filmed in the ecosystem and supported by The Connecticut River Education Initiative. Water. About three feet of it falls as rain and snow in this part of New England every year. In cities and other developed areas, much of it runs off rapidly, down into catch basins and storm drains, where it races through pipes and discharges into our rivers. I
California is considered a "dry state." So how is it home to one of the largest populations in North America? In this video, taken from QUEST, learn about California's delicate balance of it's water resources and the historical measures that have made living in California possible for its residents.
