Mosquito Habitat Data - GLOBE Observer
GLOBE Mosquito Habitat Mapper Data
Adopt a Pixel 3km
Building on the GLOBE mission to promote student and citizen science research, the Adopt a Pixel 3 km framework was created to take advantage of the personal connection and familiarity citizen scientists have with their local landscapes. Adopt a Pixel applies a nested sampling framework to GO-obtained data, thus enabling quantitative and statistical analysis. The Adopt a Pixel project was piloted with 74 high school research interns in summer 2020 as part of the STEM Enhancement in Earth Sciences summer research internship experience, hosted by Texas Space Grant and the University of Texas, Austin.
