Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction.net’
Aims:
•To use a climate model to produce a forecast of the climate in the years 2050 – 2065
•To present your findings, including the implications of your forecast, to the class.
![Page 8: Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction’ Aims:](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813d2b550346895da6f0e2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What’s in it for me?
•Chocolate
•Entry into national competition - $300 1st Prize
•Be filmed
•And not forgetting – the data from these computers is being used by real climate scientists! So you will get a buzz out of analysing some real, unique data.

Using the ‘Student Visualisation Interface’
You will mainly be using - ‘View – Surface fields’
- ‘View – Surface average fields’
![Page 14: Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction’ Aims:](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813d2b550346895da6f0e2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Getting Started:Open up the file:
•My computer / G / Climate Change / ‘Reference Material’ (you will need this later)
•Click on Start – Curriculum – Science - svi
Follow the instructions on your sheet.
Optional - Save yourself some time:
If at any point, you come across an image that you think would be good in your PowerPoint presentation, press ‘PrtSc’, open up a Microsoft PowerPoint file and – right click – paste
![Page 19: Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction’ Aims:](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813d2b550346895da6f0e2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Aim:
•Produce a PowerPoint presentation showing how much the climate will change at one location in New Zealand.
•Outline some implications of your climate forecast.
Climate Change at One Location on the Earth
Part 2:
![Page 21: Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction’ Aims:](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813d2b550346895da6f0e2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What you have to do:
•Transfer some (minimum 7, maximum 10) plots from your climateprediction.net results into your PowerPoint file. Give them a title.•Do a bit of background research (websites provided) and identify:•What will these shifts in the climate mean for life in the future at your location?•What sorts of things should we be doing now to try to minimise this degree of climate change? - Put your ideas onto further slides.
Total presentation:Minimum 8 slides Maximum 12 slides
![Page 22: Predicting the future climate with ‘climateprediction’ Aims:](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813d2b550346895da6f0e2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Next lesson:
You will be presenting your work to the class. You may work on your own or in a pair. You will be assessed on:
•The content of your PowerPoint slide show – have you covered all the points you were asked about?
•How much effort have you gone to, researching the implications of your climate forecast?
•Originality – addition of a few eye – catching features to your slide show
•How well organised are you – did you get your presentation finished in time? Were you on task all the time and did you read some of the background material so that you could enhance your talk?
•How well you talk about your slides to the class
