Nasa project will look for clouds around the Americas
A NASA cloud observation project is on a 13-month adventure to help promote ocean health. S'COOL, Students' Cloud Observations On-Line, was invited by the Around the Americas project to circumnavigate North and South America aboard the Ocean Watch, a steel-hulled sailboat.
The crew set sail May 31 and will visit 31 ports in 11 countries during the coming year to promote public education and awareness about ocean science and marine conservation.
The crew will collect daily cloud observations - the first consistent, open ocean observations collected for the S'COOL project. S'COOL is a collaboration of NASA scientists who use students' observations in cutting-edge climate research.
