In this mini lesson, students explore the relationship of chlorophyll and solar radiation by analyzing line graphs from the North Atlantic during 2016-2018.
Students will observe monthly satellite data of the North Atlantic to identify relationships among key science variables that include sea surface salinity (SS), air temperature at the ocean surface (AT), sea surface temperature (ST), evaporation (EV), precipitation (PT), and evaporation minus pre
Students analyze map visualizations representing the amount of Sun’s energy received on the Earth as indicated by the amount that is reflected back to space, known as “albedo”.
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
Students construct explanations about Earth’s energy budget by connecting a model with observations from side-by-side animat
Students will analyze a graph showing the amounts of peak energy received at local noon each day over the year changes with different latitudes.
