In this activity, students will use data collected about two male arctic ground squirrels by researchers at Toolik Field Station in northern Alaska. Each squirrel had a lightlogger to record light intensity (lux) and an implanted data logger to record internal body temperature (°C). Students work individually or in pairs to analyze the data sets and interpret the results
This one hour PolarConnect event is Nell Kemp and Bruce Taterka at Toolik field station studying wolf spiders and tundra/microbial interactions, respectively.
