CLIMATE CONTROL CLIMOGRAPHS: (suggested by Paul Wicht, Byram Hills, 
NY) and forwarded by Mark Francek's Earth listserv
from Greg Carbone of the University of South Carolina.  Find over 50
climographs (which graphically depict yearly precipitation and
temperature patterns) from around the world.  Just roll over a city name
to see its climograph. Climographs are organized to highlight climate
differences as a function of latitude, land-water differences, and wind
patterns. Climographs for the west coast of the U.S., Africa, and the
entire world (in the =93Climograph=94 section) serve as useful displays for
varying climatic patterns. (Audience: middle school and up)

NSF POLAR PROGRAMS AND EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY
This document is NSF 03-033 and can be found on the NSF web site at
http://www.nsf.gov/od/opp/nsf03033.htm
      The Office of Polar Programs (OPP) and the Directorate for 
Education and Human Resources (EHR) would like to call your attention 
to an
opportunity to request NSF support for projects that integrate polar
field research and education.
      OPP and EHR jointly encourage proposals for well-designed, creative
education projects that immerse K-12 teachers in polar research
experiences and that offer structured support to effectively transfer
those experiences into classrooms and communities. An opportunity to
propose such a project currently exists through the Teacher Professional
Continuum http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/esie/programs/te/te.asp (TPC)
program, which is managed by the Division of Elementary, Secondary and
Informal Education (ESIE). The required pre-proposal deadline for the
TPC program solicitation
http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2003/nsf03534/nsf03534.htm, NSF 03-534, is 
May 19, 2003.
