CarbonTracker methane, an off-shoot of NOAA’s highly successful CarbonTracker, which was partially funded by CPO’s AC4 program, has earned peer-reviewed status with a recent paper in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics.
Research supported by CPO’s Modeling, Analysis, Prediction, and Projections (MAPP) program was published into the May edition of Environmental Research Letters.
Research partially funded by CPO’s MAPP program has been published in the June issue of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.

Research funded by CPO’s Modeling, Analysis, Prediction, and Projections (MAPP) program focusing on observed asymmetry in teleconnections between El Nino and La Nina was published in the February issue of Geophysical Research Letters.
The NOAA CPO Modeling, Analysis, Prediction, and Projections (MAPP) program will host a webinar on the topic of Model Infrastructure for Improved Model Performance and Interoperability on Monday, March 31. The announcement is provided below; you are invited to remotely join the session.
Research funded by CPO’s Modeling, Analysis, prediction, and Projections (MAPP) program was published online in Climate Dynamics on January 22, 2014.This study examines the oceanic and atmospheric variability over the Intra-American Seas (IAS) from a 32-year integration of a 15-km coupled regional climate model consisting of the Regional Spectral Model (RSM) for the atmosphere and the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) for the ocean.
A new paper from scientists in CPO’s Modeling, Analysis, Predictions, and Projections (MAPP) program titled “Asymmetric Responses of Land Hydroclimatology to Two Types of El Nino in the Mississippi River River Basin,” was accepted into the Geophysical Research Letters journal on Jan. 3.

NOAA’S Modeling, Analysis, Predictions, and Projections (MAPP) program awarded $8.6 million to support 10 new multi-year projects in which university partners and federal researchers will incorporate real-world observations into climate models and improve processes in those models to enhance the nation’s ability to visualize, understand, and predict year-to-year climate variations. Specifically, MAPP funding will support targeted improvements in the representation of clouds and sea ice, critical elements of the climate system, in climate models.
Global mean temperatures have been flat for 15 years despite an increase of heat-trapping greenhouse gases and new research by scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography found that cooling in the eastern Pacific Ocean is behind the recent hiatus in global warming.
