Discover how Japan's snow monkeys use Jigokudani's hot springs to warm up during the snowy months.<br/>

Explore the art of auctioneering at the world's oldest auction school, where students master the iconic auction chant.

When I started this project, I wasn't sure what caused dandruff and I also didn't think much science would go into making a shampoo like Head & Shoulders. So what I learned really surprised me: There are hundreds of scientists working on...

In todays session I take you through a 5 minute warm up routine for you and your class to follow along to, to help warm up for PE, specifically the shoulder muscles. I educate you through the different muscles used, as we...

An igloo is made of compressed snow. Compact hardened snow is a great insulator of heat because snow is nothing but semi-frozen water with roughly 95% trapped air. The air molecules trapped between the tiny ice crystals create air...

Hurricanes, cyclones and typhoons are formed due to violent storms that originate over oceans and seas and move towards land, potentially causing extensive damage to both life and property. But there is a very interesting thing related...

Discover what lies beneath the sand in deserts. Contrary to popular belief, 80% of deserts are not covered in sand, but rather bare earth, revealing the bedrock and clay of a dried-out ecosystem. Learn about the unique erosion patterns...

This video introduces the concept of weather and seasons in a simple and engaging way, focusing on explaining weather phenomena and differentiating between the four seasons. It touches on weather disasters and how they can impact people...

The awesome and devastating power of tornadoes is unlike any other that Mother Nature dishes out. The largest among them, known as EF5s, produce winds in excess of 200 mph and can span two miles across. We discuss the surprising fact...

Different beetles flourish in different climates. British researchers have used this knowledge to dig into climate change history. Earth Science - Human Impacts - Learning Points. Climate proxies, such as tree rings or dead beetles, can...

What makes a tornado nature's most dangerous storm? Scientists are working to identify the unique set of circumstances which combine to create a tornado. Earth Science - Weather - Learning Points. Tornadoes are a violent, spinning vortex...

It may be dry and sandy now, but the Sahara desert used to look very different. Evidence buried deep beneath the dunes reveals that the landscape has been changing naturally over thousands of years. Earth Science - Weather - Learning...

Melting icecaps are threatening one of the most important currents in the world, the Great Ocean Conveyor. If it stopped, it could have devastating impacts on our climate. Earth Science - Human Impacts - Learning Points. The Great Ocean...

Earth's climate has changed naturally over millions of years. Could the current cycle of warming simply be part of this natural cycle? Earth Science - Human Impacts - Learning Points. The Medieval Warm Period occurred 1000 years ago....

Energy comes in many forms. What are they, how do they differ and what can they be used for? Physics - Energy And Radioactivity - Learning Points. Energy is converted or transferred, but never lost. Energy is measured in joules (j)....

An introduction to the ‘mammal-like reptiles’ that walked the Earth millions of years before the dinosaurs – and from which all modern-day mammals would eventually evolve. Biology - Animal Kingdom - Learning Points. Early reptiles split...

How do the clouds closest to the Earth affect our weather? How are they formed and what do they look like? Earth Science - Weather - Learning Points. Temperature, humidity and air pressure produce ten different types of cloud. Those at...

Hurricanes are renowned for their destructive power and the devastation they leave behind. But how do they form and where? Earth Science - Weather - Learning Points. Hurricanes are tropical storms with constant wind speeds. Hurricanes...

We examine the effects of different temperatures and chemicals on the heart rate of Daphnia. A microscope is used to let us see the Daphnia\u2019s heart and establish the heart rate under normal conditions. The heart...

We release carbon dioxide from a fire extinguisher against a dark cloth to see what happens. The expanding gas cools as it leaves the extinguisher, forming a visible dry ice solid on the cloth. As it warms, the carbon dioxide vanishes...

Discover the five distinct features that unite all reptiles and the characteristics that they share with mammals, birds and fish. Biology - Animal Kingdom - Learning Points. A Twig Curriculum Film. Delivering key learning points. Get...
