How does the water flow through the crust? En francais plus bas!

During the Expedition 327, new CORKs – observatories – will be settled down on the sea floor to understand how the water flows through the ocean crust. 

To illustrate this, we made several experiments to measure the water conductivity of different sands. Thus, Andrew Fisher presented Darcy’s laws to model this experiments. This led to the main goal for the outreach team :  discuss the subject "how to teach sciences".

 

En francais! c’est plus facile!!!

Etant donne que l’objectif principal de la mission est l’installation de CORK pour mesurer les debits d’eau a l’interieur de la croute. Pour illustrer le phenomene, et surtout s’approprier les lois physiques qui regissent cette circulation – lois de Darcy -, nous avons effectue quelques manip’ sur different types de sables.  Ceci nous a mene au but principal de notre equipe : une discussion autour du sujet " comment enseigner les sciences".
