From Successful Farming magazine, this site presents agriculture news and features for people who are professionals and those studying agriculture. Links to valuable, up-to-date information on topics such as crop news and weather patterns.

These pages will provide you with information on severe weather and storm chasing. You can also find links to different radar images on the Internet so you can apply what is learned here. There are also many different topics like this...

This site has tracked all tropical cyclones from 1988 forward that occurred across the globe. Tropical cyclones have also been categorized by strength.

This Hazards Assessment from the Climate Prediction Center is intended to provide emergency managers, planners, forecasters and the public advance notice of potential hazards related to climate, weather and hydrological events. Check out...

Students and teachers can explore the work of marine scientists and observe the ocean from their computers. Learn about Rutgers Coastal Ocean Observation Laboratory, discover why oceanography is important, and see what life is like in...

Read an explanation of air pressure and how it affects the weather. Colorful diagrams are included.

Students learn what causes hurricanes and what engineers do to help protect people from destruction caused by hurricane winds and rain. Research and data collection vessels allow for scientists and engineers to model and predict weather...

A unique interactive tool that embeds news articles and information about climate change into a map of the United States. Users are able to explore what the impact of climate change at a local, regional or national level, as well as...

Students pass around and distort messages written on index cards to learn how we use signals from GPS occultations to study the atmosphere. The cards represent information sent from GPS satellites being distorted as they pass through...

For this project students will learn how to track a real ship across the ocean and use real time marine data, including weather patterns, to predict when it will reach its destination. Teachers have the additional option of enrichment...

This resource provides information on the four main types of clouds that form in the atmosphere. There are high clouds, middle clouds, low clouds and clouds with vertical development.

Explains how to read a barometer and interpret its meaning, as well as how the barometer was invented.

Jet streams are like rivers of wind high above in the atmosphere. These slim strips of strong winds have a huge influence on climate, as they can push air masses around and affect weather patterns.

Resource presents definitions of hurricanes, weather watches, warnings, and forecasts. View animations and learn about hurricane safety. Includes weather photos and further information.

A long-term project lesson plan where students observe seasonal changes by recording observations and data of the weather conditions. Students will understand how to use a light meter, thermometer, anemometer, and rain gauge with this...

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) sponsors this El Nino and La Nina resource site that features current and historic information about these weather systems with diagrams.

Site provides another method that can be used to forecast the weather: the trend method. This method is based on prior movement of the storm. Site utilizes data, charts, maps, and predictions.

Use remote sensing data and background information to look at regional and global consequences of El Nino. Try working with the 'situation' to test your understanding.

A college textbook section that explores vapor pressure, relative humidity, and dew point. Section reviews how to calculate values like percent relative humidity. Section also includes problems and questions for the students to answer to...

A barometer is an instrument that measures air pressure, allowing weather forecasters and scientists to better predict extreme weather events. Despite its incredible usefulness, inventing the barometer was no walk in the park. Asaf...

Students build and observe a simple aneroid barometer to learn about changes in barometric pressure and weather forecasting.

Burning fossil fuels is causing the planet to heat up, causing weather patterns to change, sea levels to rise and diseases to spread. Scientists are concerned with the rising temps of Earth.

Read about how a stationary air front forms when warm and cold air masses meet but neither can overpower the other. Explains what its characteristics are and the impact it can have on weather conditions.

You can link to the anatomy of El Nino, chasing El Nino, and El Nino's reach. There is a resource page and a search page.
