Saint Mark school teacher brings Costa Rica back to the classroom

Teacher Elizabeth Eubanks recently returned from a research trip to Costa Rica along with Steve Oberbauer, a professor of biological sciences at Florida International University. In 2008, they had traveled to Barrow, Alaska to study the role of global warming on Arctic ecosystems as part of a PolarTREC exition. In Dr. Oberbauer's words, "Elizabeth was so good in Alaska, I had to bring her with us to Costa Rica". This article describes the research undertaken in Costa Rica and how they were able to reach out to Elizabeth's students back in Florida.
