Desert regions are hotter for multiple reasons; the lack of vegetation causes the sun's heat to go straight into the surface and the lack of moisture means none of the heat is being transferred into evaporation. This concept, and other...

The last activity in a nine-part series has teams create a Google Earth map using the data they collected during a field trip. Using the map, groups analyze the results and make adjustments to the map to reflect their analysis. A short...

Use real-time data to study factors that affect weather and climate, create weather instruments, and share data with students around the world.

Making observations and collecting qualitative and quantitative data is a vital skill all scientists need to practice. Help your scientists with partial and no sight learn how to use their other senses to make observations for...

Calculating molar volume from experimental data often means the additional challenge of complex numbers and slight errors in measurement. The 23rd video in a 30-part series offers two types of experimental data to work from and models...

Using NASA's Live Access Server, earth scientists compare the temperature, precipitation, and normalized difference vegetation index for four different locations. They use the data to identify the climate zone of each location using...

Students study practical data analysis within the constraints of the scientific method.  In this data lesson students collect and enter data into a computer spreadsheet then create graphs.

The Solar Data Analysis Center at NASA provides all the latest information learned about the sun. Content includes a look at information brought back by several satellites.

Provides photographs of nine different types of glaciers with information about where they are located.
