In this activity students will compare different methods for observing the Sun’s corona and make predictions about what they will observe during the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse.
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
In this interactive you will create space weather forecast maps for solar minimum and solar maximum.
Students move through a series of short activities to explore and evaluate global solar radiation data from NASA satellites. In this process, students make qualitative and quantitative observations about seasonal variations in net energy input to the Earth System.
Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
