The Harvey Broome Group of the Sierra Club is sponsoring a presentation entitled “The Next Generation Ecosystem Experiment in the Arctic” by Dr. San Wullschleger, the Project Lead Scientist, from the ORNL Climate Change Science Institute.

Researchers from Oak Ridge National Laboratory will play key roles in an expansive new project that aims to bring the future of tropical forests and the climate system into much clearer focus.

In the effort to curb climate change by reducing global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, thawing permafrost poses a critical challenge.

There’s something buried in the Arctic soil that could have a huge effect on the future of our planet’s climate.

Earlier this month (August 2014) ESD’s Jinyun Tang received honorable mention for the Gene E. Likens Junior Scientist (early-career) Outstanding Publication award.

In this presentation, learn how sophisticated climate models are developed and how research being conducted on the North Slope of Alaska is helping to improve prediction of climate throughout the Arctic.

In the not too distant future, scientists around the globe will have a better grasp of the effects of our warming planet thanks to a massive, 10-year research project happening now on the North Slope.
