| Central Question: What factors lead to the change in biomes and what impact does that have on distribution? Guiding Thought Question: Take a look at the satellite imagery of the Aral sea to the right. The left side shows the Aral Sea as it was in 1989, the right side shows it in 2014. Theorize what could have possibly happened that would have caused it to undergo such a drastic change between 1989 and 2014. Today's Learning Objective: Students will investigate the ecological effects of humans on biomes and their locations by completing an inquiry based investigation of the North American Prairies and then taking notes on some of the geographic human and natural factors. |  |

There could be a volcano of some sort that is filling the lake in with ash. Or it became enclosed and then it started to evaporate and leave the land.

Climate change was most likely the bigggest factor to this drought, or global warming

Humans could have interfered and stopped water flow with a dam or something of the like

I think global warming could've made it dry up faster and if more people needed water as a resource and it wasn't being replenished fast enough, then it would dry up.

Changing temperatures could have caused temperatures to rise and all the water to evaporate

The warming of the planet could have caused a drought or a dam was built to restrict water

The large increase of heat around the world due to climate change could have caused the amount of water to lessen

Climate change could have caused a drought in the area, and it may have dried up because of that. Leave a Reply. |
