1. Click on the Sea Surface Pressure Links and choose a specific latitude and longitude on the map that you can easily return to again. (Example 40 degrees North, 60 degrees West) 2. Record the pressure in millibars at that location. Continue this for each 12 hour cycle. 3. If possible, continue this activity for one week. 4. Average your results for atleast the five pressure readings. Optional: Graph your results millibars vs. time |
