MARCH EVENT CANCELLED - STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS ABOUT OUR APRIL EVENT! Join us for GLOBE Observer Connect, a new series of short conversations about GLOBE data, science, and the latest updates. For our first conversation, Peder Nelson, science lead for the Land Cover tool and a researcher in the College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University, will talk about the surface conditions information we collect in the app, especially snow cover, and how that data can be applied to a wide range of research topics. After his brief presentation, there will be a chance for a discussion and questions.  >>

Join us to celebrate the milestone of one million satellite matches to GLOBE Clouds observations.  >>

Did you know that clouds can both warm and cool our planet? Keeping an eye on clouds helps NASA study our climate. We need your help capturing data about clouds where you live! The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program invites you to take part in our upcoming Cloud Challenge: “Clouds in a Changing Climate.” There are two ways to contribute to this citizen science effort: (1) Submit your own cloud observations using The GLOBE Program’s GLOBE Observer app. (Remember to always be safe and follow local guidelines while observing.) If you can, try to make observations during satellite overpasses, and help us reach our goal of 20,000 satellite matches during the challenge! (2) You can also participate from the comfort of your home through NASA GLOBE CLOUD GAZE new window. Using this project on the Zooniverse online platform, you can identify cloud types and other phenomena in photos taken by GLOBE participants.  >>
