Detecting Effects Of Climate Change In Wildfires Using Satellite Data

High-Level Project Summary

We wanted to connect increasing temperatures with fires.We wanted to show that with the satellite data we examined we can find that fires increase along with temperatures .With the climate change this will be even worse. We have to take serious actions.

Detailed Project Description

In our project, we investigated the relevance of fires to temperature and climate change with graphs created using Nasa satellite data.And based on the data we have, we've uncovered the relationship between fires and temperature.

We observed that forest fires increase as temperatures rise.However, the main reason for the increase of forest fires is not only temperature, but also climate change, which causes the temperature to increase.

Space Agency Data

Nasa Firms,Nasa GISS they were all amazing resources for us to research.

Hackathon Journey

It was great and challenging .We definitely want to attend to this hackathon in future years.I would like thank to my physics teacher for informing us about this competition.And ı would like to thank our instructor Selman Canlı . He helped us a lot.
