Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
Students evaluate graphs and images of sea ice and relate them to changes in albedo. Students make a claim about the interaction of albedo and sea ice extent.
This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.
