Before the temporal structure of GAME was changed in 2011, projects started twice a year: in October/April and ended ten months later in July/January of the next year. Correspondingly, the experiments were conducted from November to April on the southern and from May to October on the northern hemisphere. From GAME VIII on there was only one project phase per year, which combined studies on the southern as well as on the northern hemisphere.
Before change of the temporal structure in 2011, GAME projects started off with the participants’ preparation in October/April in Kiel and ended ten months later in July/January of the next year. (That is, we had two subprojects). Experiments took place from November to April on the southern, from May to October on the northern hemisphere. The winter project 2009/2010 was left out. From project VIII on GAME projects only have one sub-project.
