This mini lesson engages students in writing a commentary for a NASA video regarding changes in global temperatures from 1880 to 2017.
This resource helps to identify and access GLOBE protocols and hands-on learning activities that complement the Changing Air Temperatures phenomenon.
Students analyze a graph that illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures.
Students will examine air temperature data collected through The GLOBE Program during the 2017 US solar eclipse.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Several heat domes have occurred over the last few summers and around the world. This lesson provides one example from 2021 in Portland, Oregon, with temperature and ozone data.
By investigating the data presented in a model that displays extreme summer air temperatures, students explain energy transfer in the Earth system and consider the impact of excessive heat on local communities.
