Produced by the Earth Science Teachers' Association, these materials help students understand atmospheric processes and their impacts on terrestrial environments. Activities investigate phenomena such as the water cycle, temperature changes in solids and liquids, air convection, the carbon cycle, changing...

In this activity students are required to interpret information contained in a series of graphs to investigate the claim that “Changes in the land biosphere since 1970 are consistent with global warming: climate zones have shifted poleward in both hemispheres, and the growing season has on average lengthened by up...

This resource highights the impact of human activity on glaciers and sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic using four different student activities:
