By examining “humid heat,” wet-bulb temperature more accurately assesses the human health effects of heat than measurements of temperature alone. A new study finds that wet-bulb temperatures increased in most land regions over 1979–2019.

NOAA postdoc Nastassia Patin recounts her journey aboard a French schooner in January and February 2022. The mission’s goal was to characterize, quantify, and model Atlantic Ocean ecosystems.

Climate simulations from multiple models indicate that future changes in the patterns and frequency of tropical cyclone genesis will largely be governed by human-induced changes in atmospheric circulation.

Prediction and Research Moored Array in the Tropical Atlantic (PIRATA) aims to improve predictability of ocean-atmosphere interactions in the tropical Atlantic. The PIRATA Northeast Extension (PNE) recently deployed buoys into the northeastern reachers of the tropical Atlantic Ocean. Follow the journey through this story map.
