A report has just been published detailing the accomplishments of the NOAA Sea Ice Modeling Collaboration Workshop, held at the University of Colorado, Boulder in April 2023. The Sea Ice Modeling Collaboration Team organized this workshop, a group dedicated to advancing cross-OAR and NOAA-wide sea ice modeling activities that is sponsored by CPO’s Climate Observations and Monitoring (COM) and Climate
New modeling study and visualization tool supported by a COM/MAPP/CSI partnership shows that marine heatwaves have complicated but predictable impacts on the habitats of sharks, seals, birds, and fish along the west coast.
