Books in Science on Patrol series

No one lives on Antarctica other than scientists who study it and those who support their work. Many live at the McMurdo Research Station, but others may do their work in mobile stations, battling the cold, dry environment while trying to make fantastic science discoveries. Readers are introduced to some of the most extreme and fascinating STEM careers there are. From climate study to research on polar plants and animals, the research done at Earths poles is incredible to read about. Full-color photographs show scientists at work as well as the modern technology they use to get their job done.

The rainforest habitat is incredibly diverseso diverse that scientists are discovering new species of plants and animals all the time! In this book, readers journey deep into the rainforest with many kinds of scientists and learn about what they study, their methods, and recent discoveries. Full-color photographs show researchers and their tools and technology up close, from sun-protective gear to infrared cameras. The main content also touches on important STEM curriculum content, including conservation and features of this amazing habitat.

Theres only so far people can go underground. Eventually, heat and pressure become too much, and scientists have to rely on technology to record information for them. Readers learn all about the latest science being done underground, including research on fossils and fossil fuels, volcanoes, soil, and more. From geology to seismology, several different kinds of science are discussed, emphasizing many exciting STEM careers readers might strive for. Full-color photographs show scientists hard at work and explore some of the coolest new technology for mining, fossil digs, and cave research.

Scientists estimate that less than 5 percent of the ocean has been explored. That leaves a lot to be discoveredand a large amount of people needed to make those discoveries. Readers dive deep into the research being done under the ocean and the many STEM career possibilities for those interested in such research. Full-color photographs of the latest technology and scientists at work show readers an exciting world they can be part of. In addition, the main content discusses many STEM topics related to the ocean, including habitats, biodiversity, pollution, and climate change.
