Antarctica is losing ice at an accelerating rate. How much will sea levels rise?

This video explains how scientists measure ice melt in Antarctica, the conditions of the ice sheet in Antarctica, and how that melting ice can contribute to sea level rise and affect communities all ...

Through Tribal Eyes: Change on the Menominee Nation

In this video, members of the Menominee nation discuss their experiences with climate change.

Exploring El Niño
In this introductory-level lab activity, students first view a 20-minute portion of an informative video to learn about the operation of an array of moored buoys that is used to detect changes in the El Niño ...

Arctic Climate Feedbacks

This video uses film of the Arctic and Arctic researchers as well as animations to discuss feedbacks in the Arctic climate system related to sea ice, the ocean, and clouds. It explains concepts such ...

Ice Ages & Climate Cycles
This video describes the characteristics of ice ages during the last billion years. We discuss why ice ages happened and how and why climate varies in short-term climate cycles during ice ages. We introduce the term "albedo" and use it to consider how the glacial system is affected by feedbacks that can either increase or reduce the volume of glacial ice.

Black Carbon

This video describes what black carbon is, where is comes from, and how it contributes to sea ice melt and global warming.

Using NASA NEO and ImageJ to Explore the Role of Snow Cover in Shaping Climate
DATA: NASA Satellite Images. TOOLS: ImageJ and Image Composite Explorer (ICE) of NASA Earth Observations (NEO). SUMMARY: Explore and animate satellite images of reflected short wave radiation, snow cover, and land surface temperature downloaded. Then observe, graph, and analyze the relationship between these three variables.
