During the campaign, you can participate in regular webinars to discuss the mechanics of the campaign, receive updates on data collection, and explore science with experts. Register for all of the webinars here!
Throughout the campaign, regular guest blogs from scientists about how they study El Niño and teachers doing data collection with their students will be posted. In addition, there is information on the science of El Niño, how to participate in the campaign, analysis tools, numerous resources, and engaging discussion opportunities on the webpage.
