Students observe seasonal images of Monthly Leaf Area, looking for any changes that are occurring throughout the year.

Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.

Learn about volcanic ash and watch a visualization of the Calbuco volcano to see how ash travels around the world. 

Through guided inquiry, students will identify interactions of the four major scientific spheres on Earth: biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere. They will then identify how these systems are represented and interact in their classroom aquarium.

In this lesson, students will explore the effect of aerosols on sky color and visibility by using an interactive virtual model. 

Students will observe monthly satellite data of the North Atlantic to identify relationships among key science variables that include sea surface salinity (SS), air temperature at the ocean surface (AT), sea surface temperature (ST), evaporation (EV), precipitation (PT), and evaporation minus pre

Using various visualizations (i.e., images, charts, and graphs), students will explore the energy exchange that occurs when hurricanes extract heat energy from the ocean. This story map is intended to be used with students who have access to a computing device in a 1:1 or 1:2 setting.
