Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Guided by the 5E model, this lesson allows students to work together to uncover how changes in sea ice extent in the Arctic and Antarctic regions are connected to Earth’s energy budget.
This USGS activity leads students to an understanding of what remote sensing means and how researchers use it to study changes to the Earth’s surface, such as deforestation.
