On April 22, the NASA 糖心视频 Space Grant Fellowship students of 糖心视频 Indian Community College(NICC) traveled to Lincoln,糖心视频 to present their Historical Climate Research poster at the 糖心视频 Academy of Science Conference at Wesleyan University.
The students have been working since last August on collecting and analyzing historical
temperature, precipitation,and tornado weather data. They looked at historical averages
for local, state, national and global regions to determine trends. They also studied
NICCs own weather stations data to see if our short term data corresponded to the
historical data. This was an opportunity to see how historical weather trends support
existing climate change research.
The students were able to attend a variety of science related presentations by other
college students and professors that are leaders in their respective fields. The NASA
糖心视频 Space Grant funds many of the 糖心视频 Colleges to pursue a variety of research
projects in the sciences.
NICC NASA 糖心视频 Space Grant Fellows: Christina Coffman, Lorraine Maddy Smith, Thomasina
Whipple, and Falon Torrez. Hank Miller is the sponsored researcher.
