Advancing scientific understanding of climate, improving society’s ability to plan and respond
This work highlights the synoptic conditions that caused the February 2021 South-Central US Arctic outbreak, place it in a climatological perspective, and recommend how climate services can help reduce impacts like this in future freeze events.
This effort, jointly supported by IRAP and RISA, explores the nexus of climate change, health, and migration in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and provides a better understanding of these relationships to inform research and policy agendas that build resilience and adaptive capacity at home and abroad.
On July 27, Gardiner will present on climate adaptation and The Climate Resilience Toolkit Steps to Resilience Framework for FEMA Region 3, helping to bring climate information to communities in need of hazard mitigation assistance and planning support.

In winter 2022, about fifty scientists from the United States and Europe completed a seven-week atmospheric chemistry study of Fairbanks, Alaska–the state’s second-largest city.
The study, called the Alaskan Layered Pollution and Chemical Analysis (ALPACA) project, investigated the chemistry of Fairbanks’s air pollution–especially how the pollution behaves in the cold and dark.
New MAPP and CVP-funded research analyze wind impacts on Arctic sea ice loss.

This July, NOAA’s CEE Division will support the 2022 Summer Institute for Climate Change Education, contributing to climate change literacy for educators across the nation.
The study, published in the Journal of Frontiers in Climate, provided results that are transferable to other regions and scales. Sustained and collaborative regional climate assessments like this one can serve a key function in complementing major national and international assessments, by translating and more effectively targeting information to meet local needs in support of regional climate adaptation and policy making.
CPO’s Hunter Jones will serve as a panelist on the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and the General Services Administration (GSA) Open Innovation Forum on Building Equitable Partnerships.
The role of climate and weather in understanding, predicting, and reducing the impact of COVID-19 is not well understood. This summary highlights both operational and research recommendations for meteorological services around the world to more effectively provide services that support COVID response and recovery.
This June 29 webinar served to foster CPO and OAR’s growing partnership with the Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS).
