On Tuesday, November 28, the White House released a coordinated national strategy, “The National Strategy to Advance an Integrated U.S. Greenhouse Gas Measurement, Monitoring and Information Service,” to measure, monitor, and share greenhouse gas information.
The Climate Program Office’s Atmospheric Chemistry, Carbon Cycle and Climate (AC4) Program funded new research to find a better way to track sulfur and nitrogen compound emissions (SOx and NOx) in the United States.
If this blog teaches you one thing, we want it to be this: "polar vortex" is not a synonym for "cold snap."
An explainer about the international climate meeting known as “COP.”
Was the late November Great Lakes snowstorm a harbinger for December?
Watch this space! Next week, in partnership with experts from NOAA Chemical Sciences Lab and the Climate Prediction Center, we're launching a blog about the behavior—and sometimes misbehavior—of the stratospheric polar vortex.
It's not perfect, but ENSO is still the best tool we have for predicting average winter precipitation over the U.S.
This study reveals the potentially dominant role of anthropogenic forcing on coastal cyclone changes around the US Atlantic coast, Hawaii region, Northeast Asian coast near Japan and Korea, South China Sea, western coast of the Arabian Sea, and Madagascar.
For engineers and scientists, sometimes failure means progress. When developing a new technology, the process is to field test, fail, tweak, and test again, each time failing a little less and learning what does and does not work until–finally–they get it right.
A new study analyzes forecasts of acidity and oxygen at the ocean’s surface and subsurface. Combining data sources improves forecast skill up to ten months in advance.
