For Grades 3-6: Explore Earth — Studying River Deltas With NASA's Delta-X. Free Webinar!!!

FREE 1-hour Webinar for Educators, Students, & Parents in Grades 3-6

Explore River deltas such as the Nile, the Okavango, the Ganges, and the Mississippi. They legendary for their rich sediment deposits, biodiverse ecosystems and ability to buffer against severe weather. Yet these "cradles of civilization" are in peril from sinking land and rising oceans.

During this webinar we will explore NASA's Delta-X mission, which seeks to understand the following factors to protect Earth’s Deltas:

  • Water flow

  • Vegetation

  • Sediment Dynamics of Earth's river deltas

Relevant instructional resources will be included.
