Vernier Used Around the GLOBE	Using the Infrared Thermometer to measure temperature Is the heat given off by 500 people enough to change the temperature inside a large auditorium? How does the temperature and salinity of a tide pool compare to that of the nearby ocean water? These were just two of the questions posed to about 250 students from 52 countries who gathered in Cape Town, South Africa, this summer for the GLOBE Learning Expedition (GLE). And of course, Vernier equipment was used to investigate the answers...

Around the World with LabPro	Ute Kaden is the first teacher in Brownsville ISD, Texas, to teach AP Physics. To keep the interest of her students at Hanna High School, she literally spans the globe in search of new and exciting ways to bring real-world data into the classroom. Recently she took her Vernier LabPro and sensors to the North Pole! At a latitude of 89� 58.5' she measured salinity, temperature, barometric pressure, and acceleration due to gravity. Her results? g = 9.801 m/s2 ... [more] Science Subjects: Earth Science, Environmental, General Science	Barometer Salinity Sensor Stainless Steel Temperature Probe LabPro Interface
GIS Mapping Enhances Salinity Study	Students gathering data on Laguna Madre In March 2005, Olathe North HS (Olathe, KS) students Kevin Skov and Greg May, along with teacher Steve Obenhaus, took a trip to the southern reaches of Texas to explore Laguna Madre's hypersaline characteristics. Laguna Madre, a large body of shallow water separating Padre Island from the South Texas mainland, is one of only a few hypersaline lagoons in the world. Using a Vernier Salinity Sensor, LabPro, and a laptop PC running L... [more] Science Subjects: Water Quality, Environmental, Life Science, Technology	LabPro Interface Logger Pro 3 Salinity Sensor
