Take part in the Phenology and Land Cover Project
The GLOBE Phenology and Land Cover Project is a new way to participate in the Student Climate Research Campaign (SCRC) Phase Two. Here's how it works:
Your students are encouraged to take measurements of:
- Budburst and green-up
- Green-down
- Air temperature
- Precipitation
- Soil temperature
- Soil moisture
Then, enter these data into the GLOBE database. These data can then be used in your phenology research project.
These data can then be used in your phenology research project. Each school will need to determine the appropriate times for their school to conduct the phenology protocols and associated atmosphere and soil measurements. You may already be experiencing seasonal changes; if so, now is a good time to start. Play an active role in researching the important relationship between plants and climate. Visit the Phenology and Climate web page for more details.
