This
lesson
is
designed
to
help
students
gain
knowledge
in
using
the
MY
NASA
DATA
Live
Access
Server
(LAS)
to
specify
and
download
a
microset
of
data,
then
to
use
the
data
to
investigate
tropospheric
ozone
for
several
US
cities.
Using
the
LAS,
student-groups
will
create
line-plots
of
tropospheric
ozone
for
a
particular
date
and
city.
From
that
information
they
will
investigate
possible
trends
in
ozone

surface
data
from
the
NASA
CERES
S-COOL
website
student
observation
database,
then
use
the
Excel
