Explore and connect to GLOBE protocol bundles. Each bundle has related Earth System Data Explorer datasets identified.

Test your knowledge of soil moisture and its effect on global populations.  Soil moisture is the amount of water contained

Students will analyze and interpret maps of the average net atmospheric radiation to compare the flow of energy from the Sun toward Earth in different months and for cloudy versus clear days. Students will draw conclusions and support them with evidence.

Students analyze diagrams showing the effects of clouds on Earth’s Radiation and answer the questions that follow. This mini lesson is designed to help students analyze the interaction between clouds and Earth's incoming and outgoing energy. 

Discover how GLOBE supports hands-on science for locally relevant learning which is also put into a global perspective.

Find GLOBE resources which are connected to My NASA Data geosphere phenomena. These include campaigns, eTraining and how to find related student projects.

Find GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement exploration of solar eclipses.

Exploring salinity patterns is a great way to better understand the relationships between the water cycle, ocean circulation, and climate. In this mini lesson, students analyze sea surface salinity mapped plots created from the Earth System Data Explorer, paired with questions (and answers) from the Aquarius Mission.
