New research synthesis supported by NOAA’s Climate Program Office has been published in Current Climate Change Reports. The paper by Kopp et al., “Geographic Variability of Sea-Level Change” summarizes the myriad components and processes of the earth system – both geological and climatological – that contribute to regional relative sea level.
Work on flash drought early warning systems funded by the Climate Program Office’s Sectoral Applications Research Program (SARP) appeared in the July issue of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
A new Climate Program Office-sponsored study published in the journal Climate Dynamics and led by Drs. Sun-Seon Leon and Bin Wang from the University of Hawaii has identified the characteristic wind and cloud variations associated with the two main areas of thunderstorm activity over the Indian Ocean and West Pacific that make up the BSISO.
On July 17, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the American Meteorological Society released the 2014 State of the Climate report. CPO’s Climate.gov team created highlights for this report in consultation with the report’s editors and authors.
