This
activity
prepares
you
to
launch
an
investigation
of
the
relationship
between
precipitation
and
streamflow
for
a
local
watershed.
It
can
enrich
a
study
of
the
water
cycle.
Following
the
step-by-step
instructions
in
a
case
study
you
will
locate,
download,
format,
and
finally
graph
one
year
of
Web-based
data
for
these
two
variables.
The
graph
highlights
the
details
of
this
often
complex
precipitation-streamflow

Toolbook
chapter
guides
users
through
the
process
of
locating

graphing
data
that
has
been
collected
by
students
who
participate

variables
over
two
complete
years.
Data
include
Maximum

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,
