National Hurricane Center; NOAA
Real-time and archived data, maps and notices about hurricane activity in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans
ESS3B: NATURAL HAZARDS
Hurricane Model; Concord Consortium
Interactive allows students to investigate the weather conditions responsible for creating and sustaining a hurricane.
Hurricanes
In this EarthLabs module, students will do hands-on experiments and study hurricanes in satellite imagery and visualizations. They'll also explore over 150 years of storm data to find out when and where these storms occur. If students are studying hurricanes during hurricane season, they can monitor the position and status of storms in real time. Hurricanes can serve as an exciting entry point into understanding everyday weather, or a culminating topic for an Earth system or environmental science unit.
Earth Matters - 6 Trends to Know about Fire Season in the Western U.S. : NASA Earth Observatory
Researchers with the NASA-funded Rehabilitation Capability Convergence for Ecosystem Recovery (RECOVER) have analyzed more than 40,000 fires from Colorado to California between 1950 to 2017 to learn how wildfire frequency, size, location, and a few other traits have changed.
Earthquakes and Volcanoes Around the World; Concord Consortium
In this activity, you will use a computer model to investigate the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that have occurred around the world since 1960.
Assessing Seismic Hazards and Risk with Code (Public)
In this module students develop block-based computer codes to explore the causes, likelihood, and potential for damage of earthquakes in California.
Hurricane Dynamics | My NASA Data
Hurricanes are large, swirling storms with winds of 119 kilometers per hour (74 mph) or higher. That's quicker than a cheetah can run which is the fastest animal on land. They are said to be the most violent storms on Earth. These storms are also called by other names, such as typhoons or cyclones, depending on where they occur.
Volcanic Eruptions | My NASA Data
Volcanoes are windows into the interior of the Earth. Through subtle changes and dramatic explosions, they intrigue scientists and often strike fear into societies. Lava flows, pyroclastic flows, and lahars pose great risk to those living in the proximity of a volcano, while large explosive eruptions can affect the entire planet by filling the atmosphere with ash and sulfate particles thereby modify the global climate.
