Spring Bulb for Schools: Results 2005-2012 Danielle Cowell, 16 May 2012 The ‘Spring Bulbs for Schools’ project allows 1000s of schools scientists to work with Amgueddfa Cymru-National Museum Wales to investigate and understand climate change.Since October 2005, school scientists have been keeping weather records and noting when their flowers open, as part of a long-term study looking at the effects of temperature on spring bulbs.Certificates have now been sent out to all the 2,933 pupils that completed the project this year.See Professor Plant's reports or download the spreadsheet to study the trends for yourself! Make graphs & frequency charts or calculate the mean. See if the flowers opened late in schools that recorded cold weather. See how temperature, sunshine and rainfall affect the average flowering dates. Look for trends between different locations. Daffodil Drawing Competition 2012.
