Northern Great Plains Response to Global Warming: Posted March 2, 2024
This is about the U.S. National Climate Assessment Program and in particular the Fifth U.S. National Climate Assessment which you can access HERE.
It is a long report and one part of the report is chapters on different regions of the U.S. Last week I participated in a video Zoom session related to Chapter 25: the Northern Great Plains. So in this article, I will talk first about the National Climate Assessment (NCA) Program and then what I learned at the video session with the working group for the Northern Great Plains. After the discussion of the overall program, I will be using the slides presented at that session which are mostly from the National Climate Assessment report. I am using their slides because they presumable presented the slides that were of most interest to them and of course, there was only one hour for the session so that limits what can be presented. If you do not like looking at slides without audio, you can access the Zoom session that was held HERE.
Introduction
This is important. Each Regional Chapter is organized around five topics and you will see them in this presentation. |
