Students Take on Airborne Field Research with NASA
NASA's Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) provided 48 undergraduate students with eight weeks of hands-on field research across four Earth system science disciplines, concluding on July 27.
Why it matters
The program bridges classroom learning and professional STEM careers by providing real-world experience in data collection, preparing students for future roles in field research.
The details
- Students used ozonesondes to measure ozone concentrations above the Texas Gulf Coast.
- Five science aircraft supported the program, including NASA's Gulfstream G-III and GV.
- Participants specialized in atmospheric science, oceans, terrestrial ecology, or hydrology.
