This
Earth
Exploration
Toolbook
chapter
guides
users
through
the
process
of
locating
and
graphing
data
that
has
been
collected
by
students
who
participate
in
the
GLOBE
Program.
Users
access
the
online
GLOBE
graphing
tool
and
produce
a
graph
comparing
four
Earth
system
variables
over
two
complete
years.
Data
include
Maximum
Air
Temperature,
Soil
Moisture
(at
depths
of
both
10
cm
and
90
cm),
and
Rainfall

In
this
activity,
users
download
and
graph
modeled
climate
data
to
explore
variability
in
climate
change.
Most
people
know
that
climate
changes
are
predicted
over
the
next
hundred
years,
but
they
may
not
be
aware
that
these
changes
are
likely
to
vary
from
region
to
region.

Users
download
and
analyze
satellite
images
showing
the
amount
of
ozone
in
the
stratosphere.
They
interpret
the
images
to
identify
the
ozone
"hole"
that
develops
over
Antarctica
each
summer,
and
compare
its
size
from
year
to
year.
Using
freely
available
image
analysis
software,
ImageJ,
users
quantify
the
area
of
the
Antarctic
ozone
hole
each
October
from
1996
to
2004.
Finally,
they

This
activity
of
the
Earth
Exploration
Toolbook
walks
users
through
a
technique
for
documenting
change
in
before-and-after
sets
of
satellite
images.
The
technique
can
be
used
for
any
set
of
time-series
images
that
are
spatially
registered
to
show
the
exact
same
area
at
the
same
scale.
In
the
chapter,
users
examine
three
Landsat
images
of
the
Pearl
River
delta
in
southeastern
China.
In
the
images,

The
purpose
of
the
Earth
Exploration
Toolbook
is
to
support
the
use
of
scientific
datasets,
tools,
and
other
products
by
the
broader
educational
community.
The
Toolbook
provides
a
collection
of
earth
science
datasets
and
scientific
tools
along
with
educational
applications
of
the
datasets.
Each
chapter
in
the
Toolbook
presents
the
specific
datasets
needed
for
the
exercise,
the
analysis
or
