My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, StoryMaps, for use in educational settings.

Students review Earth System phenomena that are affected by soil moisture.  They analyze and evaluate maps of seasonal global surface air temperature and soil moisture data from NASA satellites. Building from their observations, students will select a location in the U.S.

Learn about what a solar scientist does and see if you have any skills in common.

Students analyze two North Pole orthographic data visualizations produced from soil moisture data. After describing trends in the seasonal thaw of land surfaces, students demonstrate their understanding of Earth’s energy budget by explaining relationships and make predictions about the dataset.

In this lesson students will explore the Solar Orbiter Mission. 

GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement the Soil Moisture phenomenon through hands-on investigations are detailed. 

Explore and connect to the GLOBE Soils protocol bundle. 

Explore and connect to the GLOBE Mosquito protocol bundle. 

Explore and connect to the GLOBE Rivers and Lakes protocol bundle. 

Explore and connect to the GLOBE Water Cycle protocol bundle.
