Climate Science, Physical Oceanography and Climatology seminar by Elizabeth Doran, Scott Curtis and Antonietta Capotondi, University of Vermont; The Citadel, James B. Near Center for Climate Studies; University of Colorado; NOAA Physical Sciences Laboratory
Hosted by NOAA Climate Program Office
Tuesday 14:00–15:00 New York (GMT-4)
Starts in 7 days
Extreme heat affects rural communities, coastal regions and marine environments in different ways. This webinar presents NOAA-supported research that helps decision-makers target resilience measures to local conditions. Case studies address rural Vermont, Charleston and the Northeast Pacific.
The speakers examine rural heat risk in relation to exposure and transportation infrastructure; resilience strategies that connect heat with flooding, water management and sea-level rise; and the drivers and subsurface characteristics of marine heatwaves in ecologically and economically important regions. The discussion connects research with practical decisions about location-specific resilience. The event forms part of NOAA’s Climate Program Office Heat Research Webinar Series, supported by NIHHIS and the Climate Variability and Predictability programme.
Online via Vimeo with advance attendee registration. Live captions are available and the webinar will be recorded.
