A thermal flashlight measures temperature using a non-contact infrared sensor that “paints” surface temperatures directly onto the materials under examination: red for hot and blue for cold.
This project does science from the grassroots, where fishermen and women on Fogo Island, Newfoundland, create a research question, data protocol, gather data, and analyze data collaboratively with researchers.
The Monitoring Marine Plastics Project develops several low cost, open source, do-it-with-others (DIWO) technologies for observing ocean plastics designed specifically for the harsh weather and landscapes of Newfoundland.
