Earth is a system of systems.
This activity is one of a series in the collection, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change activities.
In this activity, students will learn about sea ice and land ice. They will observe ice melting on a solid surface near a body of water and ice melting in a body of water.
This activity was developed by NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) team as an introductory experience to a series of lessons about water resources on Earth.
Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.
Students will analyze a pie chart (circle graph) showing the distribution of different parts of the Earth system's absorption and reflection of energy.
Students examine satellite images of a recently formed island to identify areas of erosion and deposition.
Students interpret a double bar/column chart comparing the number of tropical cyclones in different locations.
