Train-the-Trainer: Surface Temperature
The GLOBE Surface Temperature Train-the-Trainer workshop will be held on Friday, April 12, 2013 at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA. Trainers, Partners, and Teachers certified in Surf Temp are invited to attend a FREE Surface Temperature training by Master Trainer & Lead Scientist for this protocol, Dr. Kevin Czajkowski. Training will run from 9am - 2pm. Please be prepared to submit information for a visitor security badge, and plan to arrive at least 15 minutes early to pick up badge. Participants should bring a laptop. Participants should bring cash for lunch, or pack a lunch. Dr. Czajkowski leads a Surface Temperature field campaign every December to investigate issues related to how surface temperature changes with cloud cover, how land cover affects surface temperature, and how surface temperature observations can help interpret satellite imagery. Surface temperature is an important measurement related to Earth's radiation budget. Learn more at: http://satellitesk12.org/
