User-friendly guide helps professionals implement the U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit’s Steps to Resilience.
The Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory seeks high school teachers and classrooms to join its Adopt-a-Float program. Floats will measure ocean variables to understand the impacts of climate and ecosystem changes.
Great Lakes region's relatively low risk of climate hazards and abundant natural resources make it a possible destination for climate migration. New web tools facilitate planning for regional population growth.
A new study finds that California wildfire emissions from the last five years are more than five times greater than the emissions from the previous four decades. The study also shows the importance of vegetation and fire severity in controlling wildfire distribution.
A new study shows the usefulness of environmental forecasts for managing marine mammals. Integrating species distribution models with subseasonal forecasts can predict the arrival of migratory humpback whales one to two weeks in advance.
NOAA’s Climate Program Office has just announced a total annual award of $15.2 million to support 63 new, innovative, and impactful projects to improve our nation’s resilience at a critical time in the fight against the climate crisis.
The North Atlantic “warming hole” is an exception to widespread ocean warming. This relatively cool area has been attributed to a slow-down of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, but a new study finds the cooling can mostly be explained by atmospheric processes.
Atmospheric rivers deliver water vapor and can bring heavy precipitation when making landfall. A new study has found that a high-resolution climate model can demonstrate accurate details of relationships between atmospheric rivers and major Northern Hemisphere climate modes.
David Herring, Chief of the Communication, Education, and Engagement Division of the Climate Program Office, has been named a finalist for a Pinnacle Award. He has been nominated for for Climate Change Executive of the Year.
A new study from scientists at NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic & Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) and the University of Miami’s Cooperative Institute of Marine & Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) investigates Hurricane Dorian’s track forecast uncertainties.
