There are four ways Sigma Xi members and chapters can engage in this citizen science project (Soil Moisture Active Passive mission):
http://scistarter.com/SMAP:
1) as a participant;
2) as a team leader and host for the instruments required for this activity;
3) as a mentor to a local team or individuals (SciStarter will work with Sigma Xi to find a local team or individuals looking for mentors OR you can certainly mentor/lead a team of your choice...local boy/girl scout troop, sports team, classroom, your own family, etc).
4) as a Community Lab Space to help train, mentor and host citizen scientists involved in SMAP
