In this activity, students will use sea-level rise data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends. They will then determine whether sea-level rise is occurring based on the data.

The purpose of this activity is for students to create a desktop soil profile based on the biome region of the United States where your school is located.
In this activity, students investigate three different soil samples with varying moisture content. They use a soil moisture probe to determine the percentage (by volume) of water in each of the soil samples.
Students watch the video Frozen Earth and answer the following questions that discuss how ice helps moderate the planet's temperature using NASA satellites.
Students will watch a video on the Greenland Ice Sheet and answer questions.
This learning activity uses data acquired by the TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter, a joint project of NASA and the French Space Agency, to investigate the relationship between the topography of a sea-floor feature and the topography of the overlying sea surface.
This activity invites students to simulate and observe the different effects on sea level from melting sea-ice.
Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.
This mini-lesson guides students' observations of soil moisture anomalies (how much the moisture content was above or below the norm) for the continental US in May 2018.
In this activity students will examine NASA data to determine the differences between a solar and lunar eclipse.
