Earth as a System

A system is an organized group of related components that work together to carry out functions that the individual parts cannot do alone.  The Earth System, like the human body system, are similar in that they comprise diverse parts that interact in complex ways.

These data resources are designed to help teachers integrate authentic NASA data into their lessons to support problem-based learning (PBL) and other data-rich lessons. These education tools are useful to address data literacy in the Earth Science classroom.
