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

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

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.

In
this
activity,
users
learn
about
the
variables
that
influence
the
abundance
of
phytoplankton,
the
microscopic
plants
that
form
the
base
of
the
marine
food
chain.
Users
apply
this
knowledge
to
make
predictions
about
the
timing
of
the
spring
phytoplankton
bloom
in
the
Gulf
of
Maine.
They
obtain
and
graph
data
from
buoy
monitoring
stations
and
interpret
them
to
make
their
predictions.
They

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
