The Climate Program Office’s Atmospheric Chemistry, Carbon Cycle and Climate (AC4) Program funded new research to find a better way to track sulfur and nitrogen compound emissions (SOx and NOx) in the United States.
An explainer about the international climate meeting known as “COP.”
This study reveals the potentially dominant role of anthropogenic forcing on coastal cyclone changes around the US Atlantic coast, Hawaii region, Northeast Asian coast near Japan and Korea, South China Sea, western coast of the Arabian Sea, and Madagascar.
For engineers and scientists, sometimes failure means progress. When developing a new technology, the process is to field test, fail, tweak, and test again, each time failing a little less and learning what does and does not work until–finally–they get it right.
A new study analyzes forecasts of acidity and oxygen at the ocean’s surface and subsurface. Combining data sources improves forecast skill up to ten months in advance.
A new study examines how well weather radar products can characterize wildfire and smoke behavior. The study finds that radar-based estimates can compensate for gaps in satellite data.
Scientists have long wanted to know more about what happens under the ice of the Great Lakes each winter. New tools built with NOAA’s industry partners may help fill the knowledge gap.
To recognize PMEL’s half-century of accomplishments, the journal Oceanography has published a special issue with 29 diverse articles which highlight the laboratory’s scientific work over the last five decades.
A new study examines organic aerosols emitted from wildfires and how they impact surrounding regions. It is part of an effort to use FIREX-AQ data to support better land management to help prevent wildfires from occurring.
A new study examines the relationship between water and climate over the past two millennia. The results demonstrate rapid adjustments in precipitation in response to Earth’s warming and cooling.
