This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.
Students will analyze a pie chart (circle graph) showing the distribution of different parts of the Earth system's absorption and reflection of energy.
How much do you know about the frozen poles of our home planet?
In this activity, students will use sea-level rise data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends. They will then determine whether sea-level rise is occurring based on the data.
Students collect and analyze temperature data to explore what governs how much energy is reflected.
