The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program highlighted SSEC's new "Mosquito!" curriculum through its "GLOBE Observer" website. GLOBE is an international science and education program that provides students and the public worldwide with the opportunity to participate in data collection and the scientific process, and contribute meaningfully to our understanding of the Earth system and global environment. Announced by the U.S. Government on Earth Day in 1994, GLOBE launched its worldwide implementation in 1995. GLOBE is sponsored by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Department of State.

GLOBE Observer is part of GLOBE and is an international network of citizen scientists and scientists working together to learn more about our shared environment and changing climate.
