GLOBE Phenology and Climate Project

The phenology and climate project is a new research effort between GLOBE schools and climate scientists to improve our understanding of how climate affects the cycles of plants. It is the newest project in the Student Climate Research Campaign (SCRC) and it is a lot of fun for teachers to do with their students.  Now is the time to take measurements of: budburst and green-up and green-down; air temperature; precipitation; soil temperature; and soil moisture. Then, enter your findings into the GLOBE database.  If you are experiencing seasonal changes, now is a good time to start. Read more about the phenology and climate project here. For help getting started, tune in to the 02 and 03 October webinar––information below.
