Data Data Everywhere! #1: How to get the 'T' out!
You may have noticed that the time format when you retrieve data from the GLOBE web site recently changed. The new format is YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.
We would like to show a quick and easy way to go back to the time format MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS.
1) Select the column that has the time format you want to change.
2) Copy the column to a new location on your spreadsheet; you do not want to manipulate the original column directly, to avoid losing data.
3) Make sure there is a blank column next to the column that you...

GLOBE Students!
The GLOBE Clouds team is hoping you are all collecting observations or downloading and analyzing clouds data for the upcoming U.S. Student Research Symposia or the International Virtual Science Symposium. If you are using data downloaded from the GLOBE site, you will see a T between the date and time of the observations (example - 2018-10-01T14:00:00).
We got together with Dr. Helen Amos, who put together steps on how to take the "T" out using Excel and Google sheets. The result is having a date and time that looks like 2018-04-13T16:27:00 UTC to...
We’ve discussed how the mosquito story is a climate story and a human story, looking at climate history and human history. Contemporary climate change is now playing a role in the expansion of vector borne disease- not only in space but also in time.
How many days are mosquitoes active in your city? You can find out by using this Disease Danger Day tool: http://www.climatecentral.org/news/us-faces-a-rise-in-mosquito-disease-danger-days-21903. I live in Colorado, so I selected Denver, and found out that since 1970 there are now 10 more days a year on average when mosquitoes are...

The NASA GLOBE Clouds team is looking for members of the GLOBE International STEM Network (GISN) or any researcher that would be interested in publishing research (as lead or co-author) using the GLOBE Clouds data.
We are looking for researchers that are interested in:
Cryosphere that would be willing to use cloud observations over the Arctic/Antarctica.
Satellite validation studies with collocated observations, particularly those collected during GLOBE Clouds Data Challenge (March 15-April 15, 2018).
Natural hazards to explore possibilities of using the...
