Re: Dynamic Planet
Why would tree rings be on an earthquakes and volcanos test?

To show how earthquakes and volcanoes affect tree growth, maybe? It doesn't sound like something you should find on a test.

Re: Dynamic Planet
the only thing i can come up with is if a volcanic eruption would produce greenhouse gases, limiting sunlight from reaching the earth, causing the tree to be depreived of sunlight, and thus growing less or haveing smaller growth rings

Re: Dynamic Planet
The event Dynamic Planet has a different topic every time it comes back. Past topics that I know of are rivers and lakes, and Oceanography. I'm sure the topic for 2000 could have had tree rings.RightorRong wrote:It was on the Dynamic Planet test for nationals 2000.EASTstroudsburg13 wrote:No problem.RightorRong wrote:Thanks for the advice, EASTstroudsburg13.

Re: Dynamic Planet
I think it's a rotation where the topic stays for 2 years. The rotation goes from Earthquakes+Volcanoes to Rivers and Lakes to Oceanography. It keeps the dynamic planet name for the rivers topic. This is just what I've heard from "elders" on my team.

it also keeps DP for glaciers, which is in between rivers/lakes and oceanographygyourkoshaven wrote:I think it's a rotation where the topic stays for 2 years.
