Climate Resources

Under Climate Resources you'll find several tabs:

  • Climate Science: General physical climate change, specific climate change issues like sea level rise, and climate change impacts.
  • Perception/Communication: People's perceptions of climate change issues and how to communicate effectively to audiences about climate change.
  • Adaptation: Adapting to climate change, assessing adaptation options, mainstreaming adaptation into existing structures, adaptive capacity, and resilience.
  • Mitigation: Greenhouse gase mitigation and hazard mitigation.
  • Policy: Policy issues surrounding climate change, adaptation, mitigation, and establishing a National Climate Service.
  • Focus Areas: Articles on any topic above, but are specific enough to be of special attention to the Resilient Communities, Sustainable Development, Coastal Ecosystems, or Sustainable Seafood areas.
  • Links: Links to general sources of information, like the IPCC, NOAA line offices, and research institutions.
  • Planning Models: These models can be used to assist in developing and carrying out CCCAI projects.

TO SUBMIT A RESOURCE:

  1. Choose which page your resource should be filed in. If you need help, send a message to one of the moderators (Josh Brown, Chris Conger, Rob Emanuel, and Jess Whitehead), and we'll assist you.
  2. Submit a comment at the bottom of the page with the resource either uploaded to Ning (the sheet of paper icon) or hyperlinked (the chain icon). It's not necessary to include a brief description, but it helps your SGCN colleagues find the most useful resources quickly.
  3. Moderators check for new comments periodically. We move your comment up to the main text in the page, under the appropriate headings.

It's that easy!

Came across this extremely helpful website from NOAA for climate change. Very useful resource for digging up and sorting information on climate change, adaptation and policy.

NOAA News Releases

Active Atlantic hurricane season predicted

In its 2013 Atlantic hurricane season outlook issued today, NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center is forecasting an active or extremely active season this year.

Below-normal Eastern Pacific hurricane season predicted

NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center announced today that a below-normal hurricane season is most likely for the Eastern Pacific this year. The outlook calls for a 55 percent probability of a below-normal season, a 35 percent probability of a near-normal season and a 10 percent probability of an above-normal season.

Severe weather possible across Northeast and Southern Plains, including moderate risk for parts of northwest Texas

Ice sheet loss at both poles increasing, study finds

An international team of experts has produced the most comprehensive and accurate assessment to date of ice sheet losses in Greenland and Antarctica and their contributions to sea level rise.

Understanding the past and predicting the future by looking across space and time

Scientists have validated a fundamental assumption at the very heart of a popular way to predict relationships between complex variables.

Active or 'extremely active' Atlantic hurricane season predicted for 2013

In its 2013 Atlantic hurricane season outlook issued today, NOAA's Climate Prediction Center is forecasting an active or extremely active season this year.

Earth's mantle affects long-term sea-level rise estimates

New findings reveal that the U.S. shoreline -- from Virginia to Florida -- has been uplifted by more than 210 feet, meaning less ice melted than expected. This is big news for scientists who use the coastline to predict future sea-level rise.
