About This Lesson
Show your students math can be an adventure! With 17 trips (and counting) to Earth’s polar regions spanning his mathematical career, mathematician Ken Golden of the University of Utah has been studying sea-ice structure and behavior for over 20 years. It turns out that sea ice is teaming with promises of mathematical discoveries that could, in turn, drive our understanding in other areas, such as climate science, marine biology, or the study of composite materials.
