The Earth System Satellite Images, along with the Data Literacy Cubes, helps the learner identify patterns in a specific image.
This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.
This activity invites students to model and observe the effect of melting ice sheets (from land) on sea level and the difference between the effect of melting sea-ice to that of melting land ice on sea level.
Students examine the two time series images to determine the differences between seasonal ice melt over water versus land.
