The Tree Ring Project is a project in the GLOBE Student Climate Research Campaign. Schools in Norway, The Czech Republic and Croatia work together with scientists in a two-year project.
The main theme of the project is to study tree rings and understand how one can extract climatic information from looking at the annual rings of a tree. The students will work together with two dendroclimatologists, Andreas Kirchhefer from Norway and Vladimir Kušan from Croatia.
The general goals of the project:
• Students carry out their own research projects and work together with the scientists
• Develop knowledge about each other’s country
• School student exchange
In total 24 schools participate in the project, 10 from Norway, 6 from The Czech Republic and 8 from Croatia. They work together in pairs, which we call twin schools.
