Students review an animation of monthly average wind speed at 10 meters above the ocean surface for our global ocean to analyze the relationship between winds and ocean surface currents.

Students will synthesize information from maps that show population, concentrations of PM_2.5, and PM_2.5-attributable mortality across the globe in order to draw conclusions about the relationship between particulate pollution and human health. 

Students will analyze how surface (skin) temperatures vary across a community and determine what factors contribute to this variation. Students will describe how human activity can affect the local environment. 

NASA visualizers take data – numbers, codes – and turn them into animations people can see and quickly understand.

Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.

Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.

Students observe how air quality changes over time, for a selected location, using data from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Interpret a scatter plot to find patterns in the number of tropical cyclones from 1842 to 2018.

Students watch a video introducing the concept of albedo and answer questions.

Students will analyze a graph showing the amounts of peak energy received at local noon each day over the year changes with different latitudes.
