Since November 1, 8 countries have reported data and 5 states within the United States. If we look at the...

Now that the new year is upon us, we can take a look at the GLOBE Surface Temperature field campaign from December 2013. I think it went very well. Tens of schools and thousands of students participated. Valuable data was collected that students can use to create research projects.
Here are the schools that have entered data so far.
