Students analyze Landsat images of Atlanta, Georgia to explore the relationship between surface temperature and vegetation.
Students will analyze a line graph that shows how the surface temperature and air temperature values change over the course of 24 hours.
Students observe the surface temperatures of a variety of surface types found in a suburban environment.
Students analyze a graph that illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures.
My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, story maps, for use in educational settings.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Students interpret a graph of surface temperatures taken from city districts and other types of communities.
Teachers, are you looking for resources to help you engage students in data analysis related to the Urban Heat Island in North America?
Check out the images featuring two science variables related to Urban Heat Islands: Monthly Surface Air Temperature (degrees Celsius) & Monthly Daytime Skin Temperature (degrees Celsius).
Helping students build their understanding of Earth's spheres and how they are connected is difficult. Review the graphics to help identify the parts of the Earth System and the processes that connect them at the local, regional, and global scales.
