Summer: Understanding Water Through the Seasons, Part 3/4

It’s the season that everyone dreams of. This week we are discussing water and how it relates to summer! In this episode we discuss surface tension, compressibility, and the relationship between water and light. I then share 10 ways that these topics relate to summer and the world around us.
