On Thursday, 11 March, at 02:00 p.m. ET (07:00 p.m. UTC), you are invited to join the GLOBE Mission Mosquito (GMM) webinar: “Mosquito Invaders,” hosted by Dr. Rusty Low. Participants will connect NASA’s climate change science to a new invasive species, Aedes vittatus, which is capable of carrying nearly all of the most dangerous mosquito-borne diseases, except for malaria, and its new landscapes.  >>

Today, 10 March, is the last day to submit reports to the 2021 GLOBE International Virtual Science Symposium(IVSS).  The IVSS is an exciting way for students from all over the world to showcase their hard work. With GLOBE, students learn the practices of science through hands-on investigations in their own communities, sparking their curiosity and interest in science. This often leads to inquiries that help solve real-world problems and further understanding of our global environment.  >>

The Trees Around the GLOBE Student Research Campaign webinar: “Finalizing and Submitting Your Trees Around the GLOBE Student Research Campaign Projects: Final project discussions with campaign team and participants, including student tree research projects in the Philippines,” will be held on Tuesday, 09 March, at 06:00 p.m. EST (11:00 p.m. UTC).  >>

GLOBE’s data entry process is evolving to give you a new option that is even easier to use: all atmosphere protocols will now be available in the GLOBE Observer (GO) app. Trained and approved GLOBE members (i.e., those who already have access to the Data Entry app) may submit atmospheric measurements, such as temperature and rainfall, as well as bundle data, directly using the GO app. Future work will move other existing sphere protocols into the app.  >>

The United States GLOBE program is accepting applications for a GLOBE intern at the STEM Enhancement in Earth Science (SEES) 2021 Summer High School Intern Program. This opportunity is ONLY open to U.S. GLOBE high school Sophomores and Juniors who are GLOBE students. Application deadline is 15 March.  >>

U.S. GLOBE Teachers and Partners: Join the Watercoolers in March! Watercoolers, which start at 04:10 p.m. EST, are an informal opportunity to connect with other GLOBE teachers and partners to share ideas. Each week begins with a presentation from a teacher or partner, with time for questions and conversation following.  >>

GLOBE has a long history of sharing impact and science findings through peer-reviewed publications on the GLOBE website. The peer-review process ensures that published articles represent the best scholarship currently available. (Each article that is submitted to a peer-reviewed journal is sent to other scholars in the same field in order to get their opinion on the quality of research, the relevance to the field, and its appropriateness for inclusion in the journal.)  >>
