Journey North: A Global Study of Wildlife Migration and Seasonal Change
About Journey North  
Seasonal change is all around us. We see it in the length of a day, in the appearance of a flower, in the flight of a butterfly. Journey North engages students and citizen scientists around the globe in tracking wildlife migration and seasonal change. Participants share field observations across the northern hemisphere, exploring the interrelated aspects of seasonal change.

Sunlight and the Seasons
Discovering how sunlight drives seasonal change by tracking changes in day length, or photoperiod.

Plants and the Seasons
