It was great seeing all of the data that students collected for the
Urban Heat Island Intensive Observation Period in December 2024. I
decided to look at some of the data using a graphing tool called CODAP
from the Concord Consortium. It is easy to use and makes some neat
graphs fast.
First, I downloaded all of the surface temperature data from the
GLOBE website for December using the ADAT system (Advanced Data Access
Tool). There are other ways to get data from the GLOBE data base
including the Vis system and API.
Second, I brought the data into CODAP and clicked on ...

El 25 de septiembre de 2015, los líderes
mundiales adoptaron un conjunto de objetivos globales para erradicar
la pobreza, proteger el planeta y asegurar la prosperidad para todos
como parte de una nueva agenda de desarrollo sostenible. Cada objetivo
tiene metas específicas que deben haberse alcanzado para el año 2030.
Para alcanzar estas metas, todo el mundo tiene que hacer su parte: los
gobiernos, el sector privado, la sociedad civil y personas como
nosotros (ONU).
Es por esta razón que el encuentro de
hoy tuvo como propósito principal establecer con cuales de los 17 ...

Background
I received my formal training on GLOBE Atmosphere protocols, particularly cloud observation, in the summer of 2011. In 2016, the GLOBE Program launched the GLOBE Observer (GO) app, designed for volunteer science. The GO app is more user-friendly and focuses on specific observations anyone with a smartphone can make.
The GLOBE Program is structured and education-focused, targeting students and educators, while the GO app is intuitive and accessible to the general public. Both contribute valuable data to the scientific community and enhance public understanding of ...

The first time I have ever witnessed a solar eclipse was on March 29, 2006, in the southwestern part of Nigeria. As an undergraduate student who majored in Geography, I was curious to know how the celestial event would happen. Indeed, I was able to witness the partial solar eclipse which was an awe-inspiring celestial event, but was not opportune to study the effect of the unique phenomena on my local environment. When I read online late last year that the total solar eclipse will pass through Toledo, Ohio in the United States where I reside presently, I thought this might be a rare ...
