The
Northumbrian Water GLOBE Project
The
Northumbrian Water GLOBE Project was a unique
scheme linking schools and education centres
throughout the North East of England with the
GLOBE Programme in order to measure the weather.
The
Project set up a network of 85 schools and
education centres providing weather data to help
predict changes in weather patterns as a result of
climate change.
Northumbrian
Water provided
a special support package from 2007 to 2009, which included a free
automated Weather Station, plus free
training and support for one teacher so that
the school became registered with the GLOBE
Programme.
There
were also links to curriculum-related materials to
help with classroom teaching on weather issues.

launch event in July 2007.
