National Center for Atmospheric Research and author of the earlier Australia study.
Today, he'll achieve a
new goal by speaking at the Democratic
National Convention about
climate change.
They may also be news briefings where the SMC works with scientists to give the
national media a
new story on developments within science, whether it's a report on
climate change, a paper on stem cells being published in a leading journal, or science funding cuts in the latest budget.
Using the
National Computational Infrastructure supercomputer at ANU to run
climate models, the researchers explored when new normal states would appear under the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change's four emissions pa

In the drive to survive
changing climates, larger herbivores may fare slightly better than their smaller competitors, according to
new research from the
National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis and the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies.

This accrued heat is «really the memory of past
climate change,» said Kevin Trenberth, the head of
climate analysis at the
National Center for Atmospheric Research and co-author of a
new paper on ocean warming.
«We know rather little about how much methane comes from different sources and how these have been
changing in response to industrial and agricultural activities or because of
climate events like droughts,» says Hinrich Schaefer, an atmospheric scientist at the
National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) in
New Zealand, who collaborates with Petrenko.
