Students analyze four data visualizations focused on the topic of sea level. They use a jigsaw method to explore and communicate their findings to their peers.
Students interpret a double bar/column chart comparing the number of tropical cyclones in different locations.
This NASA visualization shows sea surface salinity observations (September 2011-September 2014). Students review the video and answer questions.
