This site gives students an opportunity to explore storm clouds and climate change through the use of National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) climate research data obtained through satellite imaging. The challenge is to investigate actual scientific research data on clouds and storms, and make the resulting observations and interpretations available to NASA research scientists for review. The interactive site will allow students to discover what the major types of clouds produced by storms are and whether these clouds help to cool or warm the Earth's surface. Storms are the major producers of clouds in the Earth's atmosphere, so students investigate the relationship between the types of clouds in order to make their conclusions.
