- Anthropogenic Human Influenced Ecosystems | NASA Earthdata
Anthropogenic Human Influenced Ecosystems NASA’s Earth science data show the impact of humans on the planet through studying factors like nighttime lights, land cover, and agriculture
- Earth Observations of Blue Carbon Ecosystems - Earthdata
Blue carbon ecosystems, such as mangroves, salt marshes, and sea grasses, are a key aspect of nature-based climate solutions because of high carbon sequestration rates, long-term burial of carbon in sediments, potential for restoration, and connections to many additional ecosystem services
- Ecosystems and Restoration - Maryland Sea Grant
The Chesapeake Bay is a productive and unique ecosystem, home to complex networks of animals, plants, and other organisms that have lived here for millennia Woven into this tapestry are human communities, some of which can trace back their histories hundreds of years
- Glaciers | NASA Earthdata
NASA's glacier data provide important information for tracking how glaciers affect Earth's ecosystems, communities, and climate
- Wetlands - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s wetland data help scientists study ecosystems, water cycles, climate change, and the effect of human infrastructure on the environment
- Water Temperature | NASA Earthdata
NASA’s Earth science data help scientists study water temperature to learn about global warming, water cycles, and ecosystems
- HS-LS2-6 - Maryland Sea Grant
Standards: Life Science, Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems Performance Expectations: Evaluate the claims, evidence and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem
- Biodiversity Functions | NASA Earthdata
The term "biodiversity" is used to describe the abundance and variety of life on Earth Having a diverse assemblage of plants, animals, and other organisms in a wide range of habitats promotes ecosystem productivity Thriving, diverse ecosystems help balance processes like nutrient storage and recycling, pollution filtration, and water resource maintenance In addition, diverse ecosystems trap
