Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
By investigating the data presented in a model that displays extreme summer air temperatures, students explain energy transfer in the Earth system and consider the impact of excessive heat on local communities.
The extreme temperatures during July 2022 prompt students to investigate a model that displays historical heat wave frequency data to discover the importance of defining terms when interpreting data.
