AB: Both the Landsat 7 and EOS Aura missions have supported and utilized GLOBE science protocols as a major component of their Education and Public Outreach (EPO) programs. The Landsat 7 program adopted MultiSpec and the GLOBE MultiSpec tutorials as a basis for several web-based education products as well as for teacher professional development workshops. We have also introduced GLOBE Land Cover protocols as well as change detection activities in the Grow Smart website (growsmart.gsfc.nasa.gov) and in workshops. The education effort for EOS Aura includes partnerships with the GLOBE Surface Ozone and Aerosols Investigations. The EPO program has also funded the development of a UV meter and the implementation of a GLOBE special measurement for UVA. In addition, Aura has hosted an Atmospheric Monitoring workshop for teachers and has introduced GLOBE Atmosphere Investigations to new audiences through partnerships with the American Chemistry Society and the Smithonsian Institutions National Museum of Natural History. We will provide a brief overview of these EPO efforts and focus on the GLOBE program in NASA EPO, and the evolution of our programs as a result of lessons learned through the implementation of both the Landsat 7 and the EOS Aura EPO programs.
