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

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

This series of videos highlights how NASA Climate Scientists use mathematics to solve everyday problems.  These educational videos to illustrate how math is used in satellite data analysis. 

The purpose of this activity is for students to create a desktop soil profile based on the biome region of the United States where your school is located.

In this activity, students investigate three different soil samples with varying moisture content. They use a soil moisture probe to determine the percentage (by volume) of water in each of the soil samples.

Students interpret a double bar/column chart comparing the number of tropical cyclones in different locations.

Examine the images to see the projected differences in land use between 1900 and 2100. 

Compare a histogram and map to determine the differences in the information conveyed in each data display.

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

This mini lesson focuses on the 2015-2016 El Niño event and how its weather conditions triggered regional disease outbreaks throughout the world. Students will review a NASA article and watch the associated video to use as a tool to compare with maps related to 2015-2016 rainfall and elevated disease risk, and answer the questions.
