Students observe the surface temperatures of a variety of surface types found in a suburban environment.

Students interpret a graph of surface temperatures taken from city districts and other types of communities.

Students will analyze a line graph that shows how the surface temperature and air temperature values change over the course of 24 hours.

In this activity, students explore the Urban Heat Island Effect phenomenon by collecting temperatures of different materials with respect to their locations.  This activity was modified from The NASA PUMAS Collection's "What makes

Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.

Students analyze Landsat images of Atlanta, Georgia to explore the relationship between surface temperature and vegetation.
