Rowland Hall science teacher Rob Wilson is a lead volunteer in the effort.He called the work important because heat is the leading weather-related cause of death in the U.S.
The citizen scientists will use sensors and satellites attached to cars to identify urban heat islands around Salt Lake City. "The area that's covered by tree shade is most dense on the east side and less dense out here," Wilson explained."Prolonged heat isand the reason it becomes lethal is because in a heat wave, where it's chronic over many days at a time, the body doesn't have the chance to rest from the heat," he said. "It's always resisting it."
