Understanding the science behind disasters can help us prepare for and even mitigate future disasters. In this session we’ll take a look at examples of historic disasters using maps and photographs at the Library of Congress. We will use primary source analysis tools to explore these artifacts and consider opportunities to make connections with oceanography, chemistry, and human impacts on ecosystems. Be prepared to participate in classroom strategies that can be used virtually or in person, to engage high school science students.
