The Carbon Mitigation Initiative (CMI) recognized Yujin Zeng, an AOS associate research scholar, at the CMI Annual Meeting for outstanding published research.
Princeton University researchers report in the journal Science that unless greenhouse gas emissions are curbed, marine biodiversity could be on track to plummet to levels not seen since the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Ocean acidification (OA) is a consequence of the absorption of anthropogenic carbon emissions and it profoundly impacts marine life. Arctic regions are particularly vulnerable to rapid pH changes due to low ocean buffering capacities and high stratification. New research, led by John Krasting (GFDL) with AOS/CIMES and GFDL co-authors, applied…
For centuries, mathematicians have tried to prove that Euler’s fluid equations can produce nonsensical answers. A new approach to machine learning has researchers betting that “blowup” is near.
New work on the blowup of the Euler equations began in an unlikely place — with geophysicists, including AOS Faculty Member Ching-Yao…
AOS Postdoc Noemi Vergopolan won the 2022 Paul F. Boulos Excellence in Computational Hydraulics/Hydrology Award from the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists for her work on hyper-resolution land surface modeling.
Noemi's current research aims to…
Prediction on weather and seasonal timescales has become routine, but the “subseasonal” time scale of a few weeks has proven difficult. The Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO), a large complex of tropical thunderstorms, is the dominant subseasonal phenomenon over the tropics, and its prediction is critical for subseasonal prediction of tropical…
Record-setting fires in the western US over the last decade caused severe air pollution, loss of human life, and property damage. Enhanced drought and increased biomass in a warmer climate may fuel larger and more frequent wildfires in the coming decades. Applying an empirical statistical model to fires projected by Earth system models…
In the tropical Pacific, year-to-year changes in chlorophyll, a proxy for the phytoplankton base of ocean food webs, is dominated by the El Niño–Southern Oscillation. El Niño, triggered by westerly wind anomalies and subsequent redistributions of upper ocean heat content, can sharply reduce the regional supply of nutrients, limiting…
AOS Faculty Member Laure Resplandy, assistant professor of geosciences and the High Meadows Environmental Institute, co-led a huge international effort that used modeling and observations to determine the role of waterways – streams, rivers, estuaries, mangrove forests, and more – in both storing and transporting carbon.
