10 godina GLOBE avanture u srcu Omiša
10 Years of GLOBE Adventure in the Heart of Omiš

Summary/Abstract: The international GLOBE program (Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment) involves regular and continuous student measurements and observations in the immediate surroundings of the school, focusing on the atmosphere, water, soil, land cover, and phenology. The research results complement and interconnect, enabling comprehensive environmental monitoring. Josip Pupačić Primary School became a GLOBE school in October 2014, when teachers Tamara Banović and Ivica Štrbac were trained as GLOBE leaders. From the very beginning, the program sparked great interest among students. Since then, students have been conducting daily atmospheric measurements, weekly hydrological measurements at three water stations, and regular pedological measurements. Additionally, they conduct biometric measurements and phenological observations of fig trees at least twice a year, in spring and autumn. All these data serve as a basis for research projects in which students analyze long-term measurements and observations and answer research questions that arise from these analyses. The aim of this paper is to present the book Our 10 GLOBE Years, a collection of research projects that testifies to the dedication of our students to research and learning through the GLOBE program. This book is the result of a decade of work, enthusiasm, and curiosity of students, and in addition to GLOBE projects, it also contains works in the fields of biology and astronomy, where research methods are based on the GLOBE approach.
