This webinar will kick off the main theme for Year 4 of the Trees Around the GLOBE Student Research Campaign: “The Trees Around the GLOBE 50 Years of Data Challenge: How has land cover and tree height changed in your location in the last 50 years?” We will focus on tree/forest height and land cover data that can be visualized, by region, with a selected group of two online tools: Global Land Analysis & Discovery (GLAD) and the Global Land Cover Viewer (GLCV). During this webinar, the campaign will introduce a data research template for students and focus on the GLOBE Asia and Pacific Region.
