The advance-and-retreat cycle of snow cover drastically changes the whiteness and brightness of Earth. Using two maps created using NASA satellite data for 2017, students review the seasonal differences of snow and ice extent and answer questions on their observations.
Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.
Compare pictures of different volcanoes. Then visit NASA's Space Place to learn about volcanoes and answer questions about volcanic eruptions.
Students will analyze a line graph that shows how the surface temperature and air temperature values change over the course of 24 hours.
Learn about volcanic ash and watch a visualization of the Calbuco volcano to see how ash travels around the world.
In this lesson, students will explore the effect of aerosols on sky color and visibility by using an interactive virtual model.
In this lesson, students will explore the effect of aerosols on sky color and visibility by using an interactive virtual model.
Test your knowledge of sea level rise and its effect on global populations.
Students will analyze and interpret graphs to compare the flow of (shortwave) energy from the Sun toward China over the course of a year on cloudy versus clear days. Students will draw a conclusion and support it with evidence.
