Join Us
• Mission Control needs Emergency Response Teams
• ERT members work together.
• ERTs investigate what might happen to the Earth's many systems during a crisis.
• We use satellites and work with NASA and NOAA

The Next Mission
We need your help with Montserrat• The volcano threatens to erupt• We must use graphs and make predictions and help
the island residents

The Next Mission
• A tropical storm headed toward the island could become a hurricane
• We must use maps and math skills to track the storm

Emergency Response Teams
• Members of each ERT will learn special science and math skills.
• Can you work under pressure and help advise the people of Montserrat?
• What actions will you suggest the people of the island take to prepare for this possible emergency?

Please Apply
• Study, think, talk together, and prepare your teams' applications.
• If we accept your work, your ERTs will assist us during e-Mission: Operation Montserrat.

Application Checklist
• Learn about Earth system science (ESS)• Form teams• Choose a sphere to represent: biosphere, lithosphere,
atmosphere or hydrosphere• Complete a team commitment letter• Complete a resume• Study forest fires• Conduct an ESS analysis of forest fires

Mission Training
• You must study Earth system science and the four spheres. Then apply ESS to the case of forest fires
• Study Volcanoes• Study Hurricanes• Study Montserrat• Work together quickly and accurately• Apply new ideas, and explore where few have
ventured before
