Periodic Table of Elements in the South China Sea

The exhibit introduces the rich chemical elements contained in the geological processes, ecosystems, and energy resources of the South China Sea through the periodic table of chemical elements in the South China Sea. It deepens visitors' understanding of the material composition of deep-sea resources, promotes interdisciplinary integration, stimulates scientific exploration interest, and jointly explores the material composition of the micro world in the South China Sea. 1. Select different knowledge points related to South China Sea minerals through the LED screen. 2. After selecting, watch the video explanation on the large screen. At the end of the video, relevant questions will be asked, such as what chemical elements are contained in iron manganese nodules. 3. At the same time, the mechanical device on the wall will light up the blocks corresponding to the chemical elements (including several interference items), requiring visitors to select the wrong chemical element and turn off the lights, and finally display green correctly; If there is an error, the error element will be displayed in red. The South China Sea, as one of the sea areas with rich biodiversity and frequent geological activities on Earth, has its water bodies, organisms, sediments, and energy mines.

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.
