Book Description
"NOAA's 39th Climate Diagnostics and Prediction Workshop was held in St. Louis, Missouri during 20-23 October 2014. The workshop addressed the status and prospects for advancing climate prediction, monitoring, and diagnostics, and focused on five major themes: 1. Prediction, monitoring, and variability of the hydroclimate with an emphasis on the Midwest during the growing season; 2. The prediction, attribution, and assessment of extreme events; 3. Sub-seasonal to interannual predictability; 4. Latest developments in models, tools, and techniques in relation to improving climate prediction; 5. Developing applications to improve climate services. The workshop was hosted by St. Louis University (SLU) and co-hosted by the Climate Prediction Center (CPC) of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP). The American Meteorological Society (AMS) is a cooperating sponsor. The workshop featured daytime oral presentations, invited speakers and a poster session event. This Digest is a collection of extended summaries of the presentations contributed by participants. The workshop is continuing to grow and expected to provide a stimulus for further improvements in climate monitoring, diagnostics, prediction, applications and services"--Overview.

Making Sense of Weather and Climate
Author: Mark Denny
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231542860
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
How do meteorologists design forecasts for the next day's, the next week's, or the next month's weather? Are some forecasts more likely to be accurate than others, and why? Making Sense of Weather and Climate takes readers through key topics in atmospheric physics and presents a cogent view of how weather relates to climate, particularly climate-change science. It is the perfect book for amateur meteorologists and weather enthusiasts, and for anyone whose livelihood depends on navigating the weather's twists and turns. Making Sense of Weather and Climate begins by explaining the essential mechanics and characteristics of this fascinating science. The noted physics author Mark Denny also defines the crucial differences between weather and climate, and then develops from this basic knowledge a sophisticated yet clear portrait of their relation. Throughout, Denny elaborates on the role of weather forecasting in guiding politics and other aspects of human civilization. He also follows forecasting's effect on the economy. Denny's exploration of the science and history of a phenomenon we have long tried to master makes this book a unique companion for anyone who wants a complete picture of the environment's individual, societal, and planetary impact.

Climate Change in the Midwest
Author: Sara C. Pryor
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253007747
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
The research presented in this volume focuses on identifying and quantifying the major vulnerabilities to climate change in the Midwestern United States. By providing state-of-the-art spatially disaggregated information regarding the historical, current, and possible future climate within the region, the contributors assess the risks and susceptibility of the critical socio-economic and environmental systems. Key sectors discussed are agriculture, human health, water, energy and infrastructure, and the vulnerabilities that may be amplified under current climate trajectories. The book also considers the challenges and opportunities to develop local and regional strategies for addressing the risks posed by climate change in the context of developing an integrative policy for the region.
