    About This Project

    We know very little about how climate change is affecting areas at a local level as there is not enough climate data being generated at a fine scale, which is critical to wild areas and the species that live there. This project will examine the use of low-cost mobile sensors in the hands of the vast numbers of recreational outdoor enthusiasts to accurately observe and quantify local climate conditions in natural areas that do not currently have adequate climate monitoring capacity.
