Students construct explanations about Earth’s energy budget by connecting a model with observations from side-by-side animations of the monthly mapped data showing incoming and outgoing shortwave radiation from Earth’s surface.
This graphic organizer may be used to help students analyze the processes and components of Earth System phenomena.
