List of the MonthEach month we highlight an Internet, USENET Special Interest Group (SIG), or similar mailing list(s) or Website(s). ECOPLEXEnvironmental Conditions On-Line for the Dallas-Fort Worth MetroPLEXLast month the "List of the Month" was Pollen.com. Continuing on that theme, this month's "list" comes from right here at UNT. ECOPLEX (http://www.ecoplex.unt.edu/) is a US-EPA funded project led by UNT and the City of Denton and is hosted by the UNT Institute of Applied Sciences and the Geography Department. According to the ECOPLEX Website, its purpose is to inform citizens of the current, historical, and near-term forecasts of environmental conditions to which they are exposed, including water, land, sun and air. The data are communicated as past, current and predicted conditions. Curricula and workshops for teachers on utilizing this information in local classrooms are also available. For more information, see EMPACT and ECOPLEX. |
