Summary/Abstract |
How did ancient peoples explain thunderstorms? How does the Sun send ocean water up into the clouds? How do electric charges form in a storm cloud? This series explores the causes and effects that shape our world. From the underwater volcanoes that sprout into islands, to the rushing waterfalls that spark electric currents, this series demonstrates how both natural and man-made phenomena occur.
