About this app

Earth and Sea is an interactive science learning app about Earth’s land, ocean, atmosphere, tides, and shorelines. Explore Earth’s ocean-to-land ratio, toggle the air layer and saltwater comparison, observe how tides reveal or cover mudflats, and investigate how wave strength and bottom material create cliffs, sand beaches, or mudflats. Mission-based activities guide learners through each observation.

Use cases

  • Elementary students learning about Earth and oceans
  • Grade-school science classes studying tides and shorelines
  • Teachers demonstrating erosion and sediment buildup
  • Families exploring basic Earth science through interactive models

Features

  • Spin Earth to view different land and ocean perspectives
  • Toggle the atmosphere layer and compare seawater with river water
  • Move through eight tide stages to observe rising and ebb tides
  • Cycle through mudflat creatures including clams, crabs, and mudskippers
  • Adjust wave strength and choose fine mud or sand as the bottom material
  • Complete guided missions about cliffs, sand beaches, and mudflats
