This resource helps to identify and access GLOBE protocols and hands-on learning activities that complement the Air Quality phenomenon.

 Air, Water, Land, & Life: A Global Perspective

The world's surface air temperature is getting warmer. Whether the cause is human activity or natural changes in the Earth System—and the enormous body of evidence says it’s humans—thermometer readings all around the world have risen steadily since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. 

GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement the Volcanic Eruptions phenomenon through hands-on investigations are detailed. 

Explore and connect to the GLOBE Urban protocol bundle. 

How much do you know about the frozen poles of our home planet?

GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement the Changing Albedo Values phenomenon through hands-on investigations are detailed.

Test your knowledge of soil moisture and its effect on global populations.  Soil moisture is the amount of water contained

This activity is one of a series in the collection, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change activities. 

Students construct explanations about Earth’s energy budget by connecting a model with observations from side-by-side animations of the monthly mapped data showing incoming and outgoing shortwave radiation from Earth’s surface.
