Study Guide Overview

This study guide covers past climates using ice core analysis, natural heat distribution via atmospheric and oceanic circulation, and future temperature projections based on computer models. It emphasizes the importance of positive feedback loops in polar regions, specifically melting ice and snow, habitat loss, and rising sea levels. The guide also includes practice questions and exam tips.
