This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models. Building from an original GLOBE lesson, this resource features Google Slide and Jamboard to assist in both face-to-face and virtual learning.
Students observe monthly images of changing vegetation patterns, looking for seasonal changes occurring throughout 2017. These data can be used by students to develop their own models of change.
Check out the Arctic and Earth SIGNs video to explore how climate models are used in climate change research.
The advance-and-retreat cycle of snow cover drastically changes the whiteness and brightness of Earth. Using two maps created using NASA satellite data for 2017, students review the seasonal differences of snow and ice extent and answer questions on their observations.
The purpose of this activity is for students to create a desktop soil profile based on the biome region of the United States where your school is located.
Students observe the surface temperatures of a variety of surface types found in a suburban environment.
Students examine the two time series images to determine the differences between seasonal ice melt over water versus land.
Students explore albedo, sea ice, and the relationship between changing albedo and changing sea ice using data visualizations.
This learning activity uses data acquired by the TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter, a joint project of NASA and the French Space Agency, to investigate the relationship between the topography of a sea-floor feature and the topography of the overlying sea surface.
