GLOBE Investigation Areas

GLOBE Science Principal Investigators (PIs) have created and implemented GLOBE's suite of over 50 scientific protocols and over 60 learning activities, making sure that the data collected by GLOBE schools is scientifically valid and useful for student research. Additionally, some data collected by GLOBE students has been used for scientific research. The PIs listed below created and updated the protocols and learning activities in the investigation areas of Atmosphere and Climate, Hydrology, Soil, Land Cover/Biology, and Phenology.
