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.

Summary: The Atlas is an extension of the Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5), providing interactive access to maps and data used in NCA5. The initial release offers maps showing 15 variables of downscaled climate projections at 4 levels of global warming.

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.

A new white paper and short film present two case studies that can serve as models for how to develop and implement adaptation solutions for flooding in a changing climate.

The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy event featured two NOAA exhibits highlighting innovations that will help Americans live better lives and build our future together.

New report highlights adaptation, carbon-reduction strategies for reducing risks.

Nearly 100 NOAA scientists and staff contributed to the Fifth National Climate Assessment. Among this group were 35 authors, 13 chapter leaders, 20 members of NOAA’s technical support team, technical contributors and reviewers.
