Study provides new recommendations for increasing the reach and effectiveness of heat risk messaging
A new study focused on San Diego County, California, conducted virtual focus groups from heat-vulnerable communities to assess current education and warning systems, and recommend improvements.
The Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation (CMRA) portal will help communities across the U.S. analyze exposure to climate-related hazards, and use this information to apply for federal funds to support climate resilience projects.
The second seminar in a series devoted to climate justice is scheduled for September 16. This session will highlight stories from community leaders and organizers in the Gulf South who are preparing their communities for future severe weather events and disruptions.
The South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (SAM) project began in 2009 to capture the daily variability of key components of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) in the under-sampled South Atlantic Ocean. By early September 2022, after two weeks at sea, the project completed its first cruise since June 2019.
NOAA has invested in 23 small businesses developing innovative technologies in technical areas including climate adaptation and mitigation, weather-ready nation, healthy oceans, and resilient coastal communities and economies.
Multidecadal variability of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has been reconstructed by proxies, simulated in climate models, and linked to Arctic salinity variability. Still, some aspects of the AMOC have eluded understanding from a theoretical perspective. A new model may help.
Methane ice, or methane hydrates, represent vast reserves of natural gas, which can play a part in global carbon cycling and climate change. Methane hydrates have eerie inhabitants, and a new paper describes the worms’ microbial diversity for the first time.
When thinking about drought and heatwaves, it is natural to focus on the western contiguous United States. But an ongoing drought has also struck the Northeast. A new study examines how climate change may affect droughts in that region.
An international team has collected a high-resolution bathymetric and hydrothermal plume survey of the post-eruption caldera. Employing an uncrewed surface vessel, the survey was conducted by scientists and engineers across the globe.
