CSUN ARCS 2024 Application is Open
Mario Giraldo from the Geography Department is looking for students to join a project at ARCS (Autonomy Research Center for STEAHM). ARCS is looking for students that are interested in computer science and/or geography. The deadline to apply is November 1st.
In their last project, they investigated the temporal variation of sea surface temperature (SST) and cloud cover (CFC) anomalies in Southern California. They used statistical analysis to determine cause-and-effect relationships that connect to other pressing environmental issues, such as wildfires and vegetation health, that can help understand the potential impacts of climate change at the local level. However for this project, the focus is more on implementing Python.
This project is a collaboration with Jet Propulsion Laboratory NASA collaborators. Our vice president, Yashira, was in this project and she will continue in this project for this year as well.
