Students will watch and examine a NASA animation of Earth’s rising surface temperatures over an almost 150 year period.

This activity will help students better understand and practice estimating percent cloud cover.

The Earth System Satellite, help the learner visualize how different Earth system variables change over time. In this lesson, students will graph six points for a location over one year.

In this mini lesson, students analyze a bar graph showing the relative forcings from natural and human factors that affect Earth's climate. They use information from this graph to assess the relative importance of these factors.
