Advancing scientific understanding of climate, improving society’s ability to plan and respond
This webinar, sponsored by the Alaskan RISA program, will help determine and document what research and science stakeholders find useful to deal with a changing climate.
Research funded by the RISA program was published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. The publication – Understanding Uncertainties in Future Colorado River Streamflow – is a synthesis of studies on Colorado River streamflow projections that examines methodological and model differences and their implications for water management.
