The Earth System Satellite Images help students observe and analyze global Earth and environmental data, understand the relationship among different environmental variables, and explore how the data change seasonally and over longer timescales.  

Learn about volcanic ash and watch a visualization of the Calbuco volcano to see how ash travels around the world. 

Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.

The activities in this guide will help students understand variations in environmental parameters by examining connections among different phenomena measured on local, regional and global scales.

Students use scale to determine the area of volcanic deposits following the March 3, 2015 eruption of Chile's Mount Villarrica stratovolcano, one of the country's most active volcanoes.

Students model Earth's tectonic plate movement and explore the relationship between these movements and different types of volcanoes.
