ESSIC/CISESS scientists Michael Gerst, Melissa Kenney, J. Felix Wolfinger, Allison E. Baer, and Amanda Speciale have a publication out in Weather Climate and Society about the use of visualization science to improve expert and public understanding of probabilistic temperature and precipitation outlooks. Visually communicating temperature and precipitation climate outlooks graphics is challenging as it requires viewers to have subject familiarity and specific visual literacy. Additionally, …
ESSIC/CISESS Senior Faculty Specialist Emily Smail is on the advisory council of the Plastics Data Challenge for Asia, a global innovation challenge to end ocean plastic pollution. The challenge will source, support, and scale innovative solutions that address the leakage of plastic waste into the environment. Participants will co-create technologies, methodologies, and working prototypes to discover solutions that address the lack of data across Asia’s plastics value chains as well as …
Last month, ESSIC hosted the annual CISESS Science Meeting. The weeklong meeting featured presentations of nearly 40 ESSIC/CISESS scientists and served as a collaborative forum for them to exchange ideas, identify research priorities, and define research topics. Among the speakers were local researchers as well as scientists from the North Carolina CISESS campus and the Cooperative Remote Sensing Science and Technology Center (CREST) at the City College of New York. Several STAR scientists …
