Find GLOBE resources which are connected to My NASA Data Earth System content. These include campaigns, eTraining, pacing guides, and how to find related student projects.

What is the hydrosphere and why is it important?

Students analyze two North Pole orthographic data visualizations produced from soil moisture data. After describing trends in the seasonal thaw of land surfaces, students demonstrate their understanding of Earth’s energy budget by explaining relationships and make predictions about the dataset.

Find GLOBE resources which are connected to My NASA Data atmosphere phenomena. These include campaigns, eTraining, pacing guides, and how to find related student projects.

Students analyze a graph that illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures.

Background on changing albedo values.

Explore and connect to protocols in GLOBE related to the cryosphere. Each protocol has related Earth System Data Explorer datasets identified as well.

Discover how GLOBE atmosphere protocols and learning activities can provide hands-on opportunities for students to explore My NASA Data atmosphere phenomena.

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. 

This mini lesson engages students by watching a NASA video related to plant growth activity around the world using data from the NASA/NOAA Suomi NPP satellite and answering questions on these stability and change relationships.
