For a second year, the University of Maine Cooperative Extension 4-H will connect K\u201312 students in Maine and around the country to UMaine researchers in the field as part of its Follow a Researcher\u2122 program.<\/p>\n

The program aims to give students a glimpse into a scientist\u2019s world by providing live expedition updates and facilitating communication between the youth and scientist. It is offered by UMaine Extension with support from UMaine\u2019s Climate Change Institute (CCI) and the Maine 4-H Foundation.<\/p>\n

From Jan. 14 through Feb. 13, participants will watch as Kit Hamley, a graduate student at CCI, travels 300 miles off the southeastern coast of South America to the Falkland Islands, home to some of the world\u2019s largest penguin, seal and seabird colonies.<\/p>\n
