To investigate the different rates of heating and cooling of certain materials on earth in order to understand the heating dynamics that take place in the Earth’s atmosphere.
Students watch a video explaining albedo and its impact on Earth. The video shows visualizations of albedo across Earth and how it can change. Students will interpret the images in the video and answer questions about albedo.
Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
Students interpret a graph of surface temperatures taken from city districts and other types of communities.
