Integrating Social and Behavioral Sciences Within the Weather Enterprise
Our ability to observe and forecast severe weather events has improved markedly over the past few decades. Forecasts of snow and ice storms, hurricanes and storm surge, extreme …

Verifying Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The world's nations are moving toward agreements that will bind us together in an effort to limit future greenhouse gas emissions. With such agreements will come the need for all …

Review of the U.S. Climate Change Science Program's Synthesis and Assessment Product 3.3, "e;Weather and Climate Extremes in a Changing Climate"e;
This National Research Council (NRC) report reviews a draft of the U.S. Climate Change Science Program (CCSP) Synthesis and Assessment Product 3.3, Weather and Climate Extremes in …

Future of Atmospheric Chemistry Research
Our world is changing at an accelerating rate. The global human population has grown from 6.1 billion to 7.1 billion in the last 15 years and is projected to reach 11.2 billion by …

Negative Emissions Technologies and Reliable Sequestration
To achieve goals for climate and economic growth, "e;negative emissions technologies"e; (NETs) that remove and sequester carbon dioxide from the air will need to play a …

Abrupt Impacts of Climate Change
Climate is changing, forced out of the range of the past million years by levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases not seen in the Earth's atmosphere for a very, very …

America's Climate Choices
Climate change is occurring. It is very likely caused by the emission of greenhouse gases from human activities, and poses significant risks for a range of human and natural …

Frontiers in Decadal Climate Variability
Many factors contribute to variability in Earth's climate on a range of timescales, from seasons to decades. Natural climate variability arises from two different sources: (1) …

Completing the Forecast
Uncertainty is a fundamental characteristic of weather, seasonal climate, and hydrological prediction, and no forecast is complete without a description of its uncertainty. …

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Information for Decision Making
Climate change, driven by increases in human-produced greenhouse gases and particles (collectively referred to as GHGs), is the most serious environmental issue facing society. The …

Reconciling Observations of Global Temperature Change
An overall increase in global-mean atmospheric temperatures is predicted to occur in response to human-induced increases in atmospheric concentrations of heat-trapping …
