GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement the Soil Moisture phenomenon through hands-on investigations are detailed.
NASA Worldview is a free online visualization tool that is a great launchpad for learners who are new (or veteran) users of satellite data.
Explore and connect to the GLOBE ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) protocol bundle.
In this activity, students will model the geometry of solar eclipses by plotting a few points on a piece of graph paper, and using quarters and a nickel to represent the Sun and Moon (not to scale).
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
This lesson contains a card sort activity that challenges students to predict relative albedo values of common surfaces.
This resource helps to identify and access GLOBE protocols and hands-on learning activities that complement the Deforestation phenomenon.
Students will use coloring sheets to create a color coded model of El Niño, then make comparisons using the actual model by answering questions. If the Data Literacy Map Cube is used with this, students will color their models first.
In this activity, students make a claim about the cause of ocean currents and then develop a model to explain the role of temperature and density in deep ocean currents. This lesson is modified from "Visit to an Ocean Planet" Caltech and NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
