Climate Bubbles: Games to Monitor Urban Climate

Drew Hemment, Carlo Buontempo, Alfie Dennen

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Climate Bubbles was a playful, participatory mass observation project on local climate. Bubble blowing games were devised to enable people across the city of Manchester to test air flow circulation and, by sharing the results online, enabled the Met Office to create a snapshot of the effect the Urban Heat Island has on wind.
