Title

AGS-FIRP Track 1: Enhancing Undergraduate Education of the Planetary Boundary Layer during the 2024 Solar Eclipse

Alternative title(s)

d010116

Abstract

<p> The objective of this field campaign was to study the atmospheric structure during the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. Measurements of profiles of temperature, humidity, and winds were made by the SPARC facility from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. These activities were part of an atmospheric science measurements course taught by Prof. Kevin Goebbert at Valparaiso University. </p>
