Human eyes needed, not AI, to study the Arctic sky(opens in a new tab)
Scientists measuring high‑altitude winds and temperatures in the high Arctic are inviting volunteers—no prior experience required—to assist by using radar and camera equipment.
Event
Volunteers called to help scientists measure high‑altitude winds over the Arctic
Scientists using radar and cameras in the high Arctic are inviting volunteers—no prior experience needed—to capture wind and temperature data up to 12 km above sea level. The observations will sharpen climate models and improve weather forecasts for the region.
