$250 boost thanks to you Backers!

Sep 08, 2016

$250 boost thanks to you Backers!Within my recent research crowdfunding effort out of the participating atmospheric science projects Experiment.com recently awarded the three projects with the most backers. My project came in 3rd place resulting in $250 added to my funding total! Many thanks to those of you who have backed the project all ready!
 We still have a long way to go to reach the goal, but Experiment.com has graciously offered to extend my funding deadline for additional two weeks. Please consider supporting further by helping me to spread the word!

Improving Our Understanding of Climate Change in Mountainous Environments

Central Michigan University

Previous research suggests that the Southeast U.S. experienced cooling temperatures since the beginning of the twentieth century. However, surface stations throughout the region are overwhelmingly placed in low-elevations less than 1000 meters above sea level. This ongoing research will summarize climate trends from high-elevation stations in the mountainous southern Appalachians, which will improve the accuracy of climate models, helping researchers and policy makers alike.
