MetLinkInternational

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MetLinkInternational is an internet-based project of the Royal Meteorological Society in the United Kingdom, in which the participants make and exchange weather observations by means of an online database and, with the help and guidance of meteorological professionals, analyse and interpret the observations. The project is for primary and secondary schools (age range 7-19) and for individuals of any age. It supports Geography, Science, Mathematics, Art, Field Work and/or Information Technology.

A feature of the project is that weather reports are provided daily on weekdays (Monday to Friday, inclusive) and reference is made in them to weather observations made by MetLink participants. Reference is also made to weather charts, satellite images and weather web-cams.

[edit] Project Language

The language of the project is English, which provides an opportunity for students whose first language is not English to enhance their study of the language. There is no charge for participation in the project.
