Students develop and test a hypothesis about how albedo affects temperature.
Students develop and test a hypothesis about how albedo affects temperature.
In this activity, students investigate three different soil samples with varying moisture content. They use a soil moisture probe to determine the percentage (by volume) of water in each of the soil samples.
The activities in this guide will help students understand variations in environmental parameters by examining connections among different phenomena measured on local, regional and global scales.
