Description

Science on a Sphere, a global display system that projects planetary data onto a six-foot diameter sphere, was created by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to help people of all ages learn about Earth System science. It provides an invaluable means for visualizing complex weather and climate model data. Victor Gensini, associate professor in NIU's Department of Earth, Atmosphere and Environment, demonstrates the capabilities of this unique tool utilizing open datasets from NOAA.
