CEDAR email: U023 Union Session on Citizen Science Eclipse Results

[Bering, Edgar A]

Dear Colleagues

Since many of us rarely consider Union sessions when submitting to the AGU Meeting, I thought I would bring one of the planned Union Sessions to your attention.

Session Title:
U023. The Solar Eclipses of 2023 and 2024: Results from Participatory Science Efforts, the Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project (NEBP), and Related Engagement Activities
Session Description:
The recent solar eclipses provided an opportunity to engage a broad audience in science activities and education. We invite presentations arising from studies and engagement efforts related to these events. We are particularly interested in results from observations made by Participatory Scientist efforts (e.g. Citizen Science projects), Science Activation, and the Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project (NEBP).  We seek papers about the results from NEBP engineering flights, atmospheric sciences campaigns, separately-flown eclipse observing payloads, and ground-based observations made to support the balloon data. Since NEBP and other Participatory Scientist efforts included work done by undergraduates and high school students, we seek experiences, models, and outcomes of successful initiatives that provide authentic research experiences. Presentations can address the roles of scientists and education experts in bringing eclipse experiences to the classroom and public. Presentations are welcome from all scientific disciplines and educators.
Primary Section:
Union Sessions


The submission deadline is July 31, 2024, at 11:59 PM EDT/03:59 AM +1 GMT
