This activity is one of a series in the collection, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change activities. 

These six graphs show Ocean Chlorophyll Concentrations from 1998 - 2018 in a variety of locations: East Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska, California Coast, Southeastern US/Gulf of Mexico, Northeastern US and the Scotian Shelf, and the Hawaiian Islands. Students will use the graph to determine how the chlorophyll values for these locations have changed over the last 20 years.

Students watch a 28-minute video on NASA's involvement in fighting wildfires.

Students develop and test a hypothesis about how albedo affects temperature.

Worldview is a valuable resource in understanding information about the atmosphere. Learn how to access models in order to answer your own questions.

This lesson uses the National Park Service Story Map which displays national parks around the contiguous United States and their standard exceedance ozone concentrations from 2016-2021. Students will explore ozone levels and answer questions.

The fires in Greece during the summer of 2007 devastated large tracks of forest and ground cover in this Mediterranean region. Students analyze these data to determine the scale, area, and percentage of the forest impacted by of these fires.

NASA makes observations and collects data about ozone in the Great Lakes region. Read about the research and analyze related data.
