Lab for reconstructing atmospheric CO2 from leaf stomata part of Deep Time Climate and Carbon Cycle:Teaching Materials:Teaching Activities
Students measure stomatal frequencies in fossil and present-day leaves in order to quantitatively estimate atmospheric CO2 concentration.

Lab for modeling the long-term carbon cycle part of Deep Time Climate and Carbon Cycle:Teaching Materials:Teaching Activities
In this two-week sequence, students first create models of simple dynamic systems that include feedbacks. Students then apply this modeling framework to the long-term carbon cycle.
