DIY Meteorology Kits: Science at Ponce City Market

Primary tabs

Science Showcase at Ponce City Farmers Market

Georgia Tech will be at Ponce City Farmers Market one Tuesday a month from June to November. Graduates in Earth and Atmospheric Sciences and faculty from the Georgia Tech School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences will share with customers and passersby science about our planet that they could apply to their daily lives.

DIY Meteorology Kits is the fourth of six programs making up "Science Showcase at Ponce City Farmers Market." The goal of this program is to demonstrate how anyone can make a basic meteorology kit at home from common items. If you are at the farmers' market you can also learn   

  • how weather works
  • what the "highs' and "lows" in weather reports mean and how they affect the formation of storms 
  • about high-end meteorology kits 

 

Series Schedule
Following are the topics for "Science Showcase at Ponce City Farmers Market" through November, as well as the Georgia Tech volunteers:

The showcase is an initiative of Ph.D. student Tiegan Hobbs. Georgia Tech's science presence at Ponce City Farmers Market was made possible by Hobbs's collaboration with its market manager, Stephanie Luke.
