The International Polar Year will be held in 2007-2009 as one activity on the 50th anniversary of the Geophysical Year of 1957-58. Because of the seasons at the poles, the "year" will actually run from March 2007 to March 2009. The lessons featured on this page provide a few possible ideas for IPY-related studies using MY NASA DATA. More IPY-related lessons and ideas are welcome.
