Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
The Earth System Satellite Images, along with the Data Literacy Cubes, helps the learner identify patterns in a specific image.
The Earth System Satellite, help the learner visualize how different Earth system variables change over time. In this lesson, students will graph six points for a location over one year.
Students analyze a graph that illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures.
The Earth System Satellite Images, help the learner visualize how different Earth system variables change over time, establish cause and effect relationships for a specific variable, identify patterns, and determine relationships among variables over one year.
Earth is a system of systems.
Students watch a video explaining albedo and its impact on Earth. The video shows visualizations of albedo across Earth and how it can change. Students will interpret the images in the video and answer questions about albedo.
The Earth System Satellite Images, along with the Data Literacy Cubes, help the learner determine relationships among variables.
