SUMMARY:Climate Change: How We Know - Taste of Science Festival
DESCRIPTION:Ryan’s Daughter\, 350 East 85th Street New York\, NY\, 10028 \nJohn Upton\, Climate Central \nMaureen E. Raymo\, Columbia University \nSarah Kapnick\, NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory \nScientists have been predicting climate change impacts with extraordinary accuracy for decades\, even as fossil fuel interests have attacked and tried to undermine them. How do they get it so right? Speakers will explain the models\, satellites\, marine robots\, and millennia worth of soil\, ice and tree ring samples that are illuminating our dangerous path ahead — and that helped win the United Nations’ climate science program a Nobel Peace Prize. \nTickets for this event ($5) can be purchased online; 21+ only. \nJohn Upton is a features journalist at Climate Central\, which researches and reports on the changing climate. He has science and business degrees and more than a decade of international reporting experience. Guided by science and by extensive field reporting\, he tells stories about climate change’s impacts and solutions. \nMaureen E. Raymo earned her PhD at Columbia University and is currently the Bruce C. Heezen Lamont Research Professor and the Director of the Lamont-Doherty Core Repository at Columbia. She is a paleoceanographer/marine geologist who studies the history and causes of climate change in the Earth’s past. \nSarah Kapnick’s research focuses on the mechanisms controlling the hydroclimate\, with an emphasis on: precipitation\, extreme storms and mountain snowpack. Dr. Kapnick’s work answers questions about current weather and deviations in the climate system relating to the water cycle\, which can result in mitigable disruptions\, and thus are paramount to resource planning and development. Dr. Kapnick’s research utilizes “big data” from both observations and models\, to understand how the climate system has varied in the past and present\, and what we might expect in the future. \nThis event is part of the 2018 Taste of Science Festival.
