SciStarter, an online resource featuring 1,000+ citizen science projects, is reaching out to Sigma Xi members and chapters for help identifying participants, or leaders, for a citizen science project in their local areas. The NASA-funded project involves collecting soil moisture data worldwide to validate and calibrate readings by the SMAP (Soil Moisture Active Passive) satellite.

Sigma Xi members can sign up by using this form. 

For more details and the public link to sign up, see the SciStarter website.
