Students examine the two time series images to determine the differences between seasonal ice melt over water versus land.

This activity is one of a series in the collection, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change activities. 

Students will watch a video on the Greenland Ice Sheet and answer questions.

What is sea-level rise and how does it affect us? This "Teachable Moment" looks at the science behind sea-level rise and offers lessons and tools for teaching students about this important climate topic. 

Students analyze four data visualizations focused on the topic of sea level.  They use a jigsaw method to explore and communicate their findings to their peers.
