Help track #Wildfire smoke in Ireland through Cloud Observations in the GLOBE Observer app & website. As wildfires burn all over Europe and across the planet, stay informed - no fireworks, bonfires, BBQs or cigarettes near forests, grasslands or bogs. @epaireland.bsky.social @antaisce.bsky.social

Not all surfaces were created equal when it comes to heat absorption! A snapshot of #SurfaceTemperatures around #Dublin during the recent hot spell. Another point in favour of more urban greenspaces! @epaireland.bsky.social @antaisce.bsky.social #GreenUp #UrbanGreenspaces #HeatWave

What covers the ground around us has a big effect on how hot the air feels! Surface temps taken around Dublin show how important trees and green spaces are in our urban centers. The best way to beat the heat? Plant more urban trees! @antaisce.bsky.social @epaireland.bsky.social #HeatWave #Dublin

Our #SurfaceTemperature Detectives collected some surprising data last week! Can you believe a surface in Dublin was 50°C?! That's the #HeatWave & the #UrbanHeatIslandEffect at play. The best way to counteract is by increasing urban trees & greenspaces. @epaireland.bsky.social @antaisce.bsky.social

That wraps up another year of the GLOBE Ireland River Ecosystem campaign! Schools around Ireland collected ecological and chemical data at 78 sites. They measured #nitrate and #phosphate levels, water temperature and pH. Well done to everyone involved! @epaireland.bsky.social @antaisce.bsky.social

Our celebration of the work done by GLOBE Ireland students continued with the primary school awards in Richmond Barracks, Dublin. We loved hearing all about the students amazing projects and were delighted to be joined by David Quinn from LAWPRO as a guest and judge. Congrats to our winners!

GLOBE Ireland wrapped up a big year of citizen science and data collection with the secondary school awards where the excellent work done by students across the country was recognised. We were joined by guests from @epaireland.bsky.social, LAWPRO, MET Éireann & DCU to celebrate. Well done everyone!

That's a wrap on another Precipitation Monitoring Period for our #ClimateResilience Rainfall & Flooding schools. It was a very wet and wild time so well done to everyone who took part! #theGLOBEProgram #FloodingInIreland #CitizenScience #StormChandra @antaisce.bsky.social @epaireland.bsky.social

Thanks to #StormChandra, Week 3 has been another wet one for our #ClimateResilience:RainfalAndFlooding schools! We saw a variation in rain across the country, from 4mm to 47mm & our colleagues in Croatia also had a rainy week. What will Week 4 bring? @epaireland.bsky.social @antaisce.bsky.social
