Assessing the impact of sea level change in Google Earth

I’ve completed a new Google Earth based lesson which is part of a sequence of activities on surfing and climate change that will be announced later in the year. I’d like to get some feedback on this one though.

The case study is based on the Gold Coast of Queensland, Australia

The lesson gets students to create maps of sea level change which are then used to assess the likely impact on the region.

    Dear WorldWind people. Haven’t been using WorldWind for a while but now the Virtual Earth plugin has been updated I can upgrade to 1.4 and then I’ll try the Global Flood plug in. Thanks again.
