Welcome to the GEOS 440 Team 8 webpage for the Fall 2022 semester.


Team members: Morgan, Kyle, and Megan

Sensor: Adafruit SCD-30 NDIR CO2

Summary: Our group is using the SCD-30 NDIR CO2, Temperature, and Humidity Sensor by Adafruit to measure atmospheric carbon. Our hypothesis is that carbon sequestration by plants causes a decrease in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. By measuring carbon dioxide levels, we can see the effect carbon sequestration by plants has on atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Our experiment includes carbon measurements within two closed systems: one with a plant and soil, and another where the sensor will be by itself.
