Source GLOBE Classroom Assessment Tools Subject Science Grade Level 9, 10, 11, 12	Water Vapor The Water Vapor task is part of the Atmosphere Unit from Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE). In this task, students will use a near-infrared sun photometer to measure the amount of sunlight reaching the ground at wavelengths that are correlated to water vapor. This task includes: Water Vapor Protocol (pdf) Barometric Pressure Protocol (pdf) Integrated Atmosphere Site Set-up and Documentation Protocol (pdf) Relative Humidity Protocol (pdf) Surface Temperature Protocol (pdf) Atmosphere Learning Activities Introduction (pdf) Draw Your Own Visualization (pdf) Learning to Use Visualizations - An Example with Elevation and Temperature (pdf) Atmosphere Investigation Site Definition Sheet (pdf) Atmosphere Investigation Water Vapor Data Sheet (pdf) Documenting Your Atmosphere Study Site Field Guide (pdf) Water Vapor protocol Classroom Preparation Guide (pdf) Water Vapor protocol Data Collection Field Guide (pdf)

In this task, students will use GLOBE visualizations to display student data on maps and to learn about seasonal changes in regional and global temperature patterns. They will measure temperature change in soil, water and air as they are exposed to the heating action of the sun. Students will use GLOBE data and graphing tools to compare the influence of latitude, elevation, and geography on seasonal patterns.
