CANDAC Student-Researchers Atmospheric Collaboration

CANDAC (Canadian Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Change) researchers have teamed up with students and staff at schools in Ontario and Nunavut to launch a new project that encourages young people to become active researchers who monitor atmospheric conditions using scientific instruments at their school. Researchers and students work together to gather, compare and analyse data to better understand the current state of Earth's dynamic atmosphere.

Taking measurements on the roof! Where will you be taking measurements?

Today Aubyn went up to the chilly roof of the Physics building at the University of Toronto to test the intstruments we will be using to take measurements during the 2017 Student-Researcher Atmospheric Collaboration Project.

She's testing a pyranometer and a multimeter: instruments used to measure solar insolation.

Orfeo came to help her out!

It's a crisp, cloudy day here in Toronto. Can you tell what type of clouds those are?
