New Community Blog: “Does GLOBE Air Temperature Data Show Evidence of Climate Change?”
A GLOBE Community new blog, “Does GLOBE Air Temperature Data Show Evidence of Climate Change?” written by David Overoye (Lead, Data and Information Systems Team; Axient, Pasadena, California, USA) explores GLOBE’s data retrieval systems – and whether or not air temperature data recorded by students in Croatia over the last 21 years shows any evidence of climate change.
“I had a chance to visit the GLOBE country Croatia recently (beautiful!) and was asked to prepare some training material on how to use GLOBE’s data retrieval systems – Vis and ADAT. In putting together the training material I wanted to do something that would give people a chance to try out the tools and do some analysis on their own.”
In the blog, Overoye offers presentations on GLOBE’s Vis and ADAT systems, with tasks that GLOBE teachers and students can complete.
“Recognizing that Croatia has been with the program since very early on, and they had recorded a large amount of data, I was curious to see if the air temperature data recorded by students in Croatia over the last 21 years showed any evidence of climate change.”
