The purpose of this activity is for students to create a desktop soil profile based on the biome region of the United States where your school is located.
Earth is a system of systems.
Review this page to learn about the background of volcanoes and their eruptions.
Students examine satellite images of a recently formed island to identify areas of erosion and deposition.
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.
My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, story maps, for use in educational settings.
This story map allows students to explore the urban heat island effect using land surface temperature and vegetation data in a 5 E-learning cycle. Students investigate the processes that create differences in surface temperatures, as well as how human activities have led to the creation of urban heat islands.
After learning about the different characteristics of satellite data, students will describe the advantages and disadvantages of using two different satellites to study the Urban Heat Island Effect.
Students will identify and describe the relationship between watersheds and phytoplankton distribution.
