Students analyze a graph that illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Students compare climographs for two locations to determine the most likely months to expect the emergence of mosquitoes in each location.
Students track weather over time and create a bar chart to track their data.
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
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.
Students will analyze surface temperature and solar radiation data to construct explanations about the relationship of seasons and temperature to the amount of solar energy received on Earth’s surface.
NASA visualizers take data – numbers, codes – and turn them into animations people can see and quickly understand.
Students will analyze a line graph that shows how the surface temperature and air temperature values change over the course of 24 hours.
