Activity 2

Research: Climate Central scientists publish peer-reviewed research on climate science; energy; impacts such as sea level rise; climate attribution and more. Our independent research is designed to engage the public and illuminate the scientific facts of climate, using pioneering analysis and data visualization techniques. -Research and development of the first-in-the-nation interactive sea level rise map. Once this interactive web interface is online, any American will be able to type in their zip code to learn their community's risk of being flooded, and the timeframe, due to storm surge and sea level rise. -Research and development of two academic papers in conjunction with the sea level rise project. The findings in these papers will bring a new level of credibility to impact estimates from sea level rise showing that climate change has doubled or tripled the threat of storm surges at most locations around the United States. -Conducted research to help the public understand how climate change has dramatically increased the odds of extreme weather events as they occur. Our ability to quickly generate sophisticated and highly accurate analysis around extreme weather events, such as Hurricane Irene, has allowed us to reach a larger audience who may be receptive to information about links between extreme weather and climate change. This maximizes our ability to connect with a captive audience and to provide valuable service to local leaders and meteorologists.
