This story map lesson plan allows students to explore ocean circulation patterns as they relate to the world's ocean garbage patches using NASA ocean currents data.
This activity invites students to simulate and observe the different effects on sea level from melting sea-ice.
Check out the Arctic and Earth SIGNs video to explore how climate models are used in climate change research.
The Earth System Satellite Images, along with the Data Literacy Cubes, helps the learner identify patterns in a specific image.
In this mini lesson, students analyze a bar graph showing the relative forcings from natural and human factors that affect Earth's climate. They use information from this graph to assess the relative importance of these factors.
Students use albedo values of common surfaces along with photographic images of Earth taken from the International Space Station to make an argument about specific anthropogenic activities that impact Earth’s albedo.
Students will make a claim about whether changing albedo contributes to changes in Arctic habitats.
Test your knowledge of sea level rise and its effect on global populations.
The Earth System Satellite, help the learner visualize how different Earth system variables change over time.
