Summary: Oregon's Disaster Resilience Learning Network is a virtual network led by and for leaders of color. The group aims to provide Oregon’s communities of color with equitable access to linguistically and culturally relevant, lifesaving disaster preparedness resources.

Observations from deep ocean robots and historic data from research vessels have heightened confidence that parts of the global deep ocean are warming at a rate of 0.0036–0.0072°F (0.002–0.004°C) each year.

Nitrogen is essential to life on Earth but nitrogen pollution can impact air quality when compounds like ammonia and nitrous oxide become too abundant. A new study examines the effects of farming and wildfires.

The new article identifies promising strategies for improving equity outcomes within co-production relationships and small grant programs.

This video from ClimateCentral looks at the way climate conditions can affect vegetation in the West, and what influence this has on wildfires. Drought and rainfall can have very different wildfire outcomes, depending on vegetation type, extent, and location.

One strategy for combating climate change is to enhance natural processes and/or deploy new technologies that remove carbon dioxide from the air and ocean.

In this activity, students construct flying birds (pollution collectors) from paper and wire hangers. Students hang up their birds to see how they react to air pollution and compare and make observations about the differences in the birds.

Summary: Infrastructure Resilience to Deliver Culturally Responsive Care

A new instrument for measuring aerosols on a long-term basis has recently been installed at NOAA’s Air Resources Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The information from the sensor could lead to more accurate weather and air quality forecasts.
