Dr. Tweedie's Arctic mapping project tracks climate change indicators with 24/7 data collection and prompt transfer of collected data. As the Earth's temperature warms, sea levels will rise, precipitation cycles will change, affecting where people can grow crops, hurricanes will intensify, and diseases like malaria and yellow fever can spread to new habitats. This project explores global implications of climate change in the Arctic.
