Teams will complete tasks related to Earth's fresh water systems โ including rivers, lakes, groundwater, glaciers, watersheds, and the impact of fresh water on landscapes and climate.
Earth & Space Science
Earth and space science events explore our planet's geology, weather systems, oceans, and the vast cosmos beyond. These events combine data interpretation, mapping, and deep subject knowledge.
Participants will demonstrate understanding of severe storm systems โ including tornadoes, hurricanes, thunderstorms, and blizzards โ through interpretation of meteorological data, radar, and atmospheric science.
Participants will demonstrate understanding of basic principles of remote sensing and use imagery, data, and maps to complete tasks related to Earth systems processes and mapping principles.
Teams will identify and classify rocks and minerals and demonstrate knowledge of how they help us understand geologic processes, Earth's history, natural resources, and use by society.
Participants will demonstrate their knowledge of planet formation and structure within and beyond the Solar System โ including exoplanets, stellar classification, and cosmological concepts.
