In this activity, students will understand the analog method of forecasting and make a weather prediction using the analog method.

In this lesson, students calculate their carbon footprint and then determine how they can reduce it.

In this activity, students will understand the climatology method of forecasting and make a weather prediction using the climatology method.

In this activity, students make and record weather observations, and compare their observations to online weather data.

In this project activity, students learn about different types of clouds and determine which type of cloud is most commonly overhead in their area over a period of four weeks.

During this project, students observe convection current by performing two lab experiments. As a result of these activities, students develop an understanding of the process of convection, and apply the knowledge to processes in the atmosphere.

In this lesson, students use ImageJ to create a 3D representation of a digital elevation model, then calibrate the image from known elevations. Using a slightly altered version of the digital elevation model (DEM), students compare what the elevation of the glacier might look like 100 years from now and explore how a DEM can be used to analyze changes in elevations over time.

In this lesson, students will learn about global climate change, what causes global warming, and scientific projections about climate change in the near future.

In this activity, students observe a demonstration of the role of thermal conductivity in heat transfer, explore the properties of snow, and design and conduct an experiment to compare the thermal conductivity of four substances.

In this activity, students learn about the greenhouse effect and its possible effects on global warming and rising water levels on Earth.

In this activity, students build an anemometer and then measure wind speed in areas of differing topography to study how natural and man-made topography affect wind speed.

Students use the Internet to collect and compare data from a regional coastal weather station to data from an inland area (along similar latitudes) to determine what effect oceans have on temperature and climate.

Students will design and conduct an experiment to test how long it takes for air to become saturated.

In this lesson, students learn about the carbon cycle and how carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere.

In this lesson, students investigate basic principles that relate to thermohaline circulation. Then they view a short video that connects these concepts to oceanic circulation and the potential for climate change.

In this activity, students explore insulation and heat transfer by designing and testing a soda insulator.

In this activity, students use data collected in previous lessons ("The Science of Snow" and "Lake Ice and Energy Transfer") to determine the thermal conductivity of snow and mean conductive heat flow.

In this activity, students use data collected in a previous lesson ("The Science of Snow") to determine snow temperature gradient.

Students learn the composition and layers of the atmosphere through discussion, creation of a scale model, and a written exercise.
