We have 4 oceans
How did your predictions match the tracking data for each bottle?

Scientists use buoys to measure ocean conditions in specific locations over time. There are a variety of different buoys deployed in the ocean; some are attached to the ocean floor, while others drift freely in open waters. All ocean buoys, regardless of type, report some physical characteristic of the ocean or the atmosphere for later analysis.

In this virtual lab activity, you will use buoys to track a bottle as it travels on ocean currents worldwide. Problem: How can data from buoys be used to analyze ocean currents? Hypothesis: Predict the location each bottle came from using the tracking data in the Data and Observations section and the world map of major ocean currents pictured below.

For example:I predict bottle 1 is from canada , bottle 2 is from brazil,and bottle 3 is from carriboean islands based on the tracking data andworld map of currents

yes

no

blue is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. this is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
