This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.
This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.
Students will analyze a pie chart (circle graph) showing the distribution of different parts of the Earth system's absorption and reflection of energy.
This investigation is part of the NASA: Mission Geography Module "What are the causes and consequences of climate change?" that guides students through explorations in climatic variability and evidence for global climate change.
Students collect and analyze temperature data to explore what governs how much energy is reflected.
