A typhoon, smoke from wildfires and increasing rain are not what most imagine when thinking of the Arctic. Yet these are some of the climate-driven events included in NOAA’s 2022 Arctic Report Card, which provides a detailed picture of how warming is reshaping the…
Earth’s atmosphere, oceans and land surfaces interact and combine in powerful, yet often unseen, ways as part of a complex planetary system that determines the climate. Over many decades, researchers at Princeton University have played a leading role in the development of advanced computational models that simulate interactions among these…
As experienced in the recent COVID pandemic, the outbreak and rapid spread of infectious disease has potential to dramatically impact human morality, public health systems, and economies worldwide. Society’s ability to control and prevent infectious disease hinges on our understanding of the many factors influencing transmission.
A new cause of iceberg breakup has been revealed by simulations of one of the largest icebergs on record. Giant tabular iceberg A68a exceeded 100 miles long and 30 miles wide when it calved from an ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula in 2017. Initially famous for its size, the iceberg received further media attention in 2020 when it showed…
An exploratory project to investigate the benefits of farming seaweed in the open ocean has been selected for funding from Princeton’s Dean for Research Innovation Fund for the Sustainability of Our Planet.
…AOS Faculty Member Gabe Vecchi, deputy director of CIMES, joins "CBS News Mornings" to detail how climate change is impacting hurricanes and what can be done in response to the more severe natural disasters.
It took less than 3 hours for Hurricane Ian to strengthen from a Category 3 to a Category 4 and was almost a cat 5 when it made landfall and scientists are warning storms are going to become more frequent and more intense in the years to come. AOS Faculty Member Gabe Vecchi explains why in a Newsy Evening Debrief.
Hurricane Ian and Typhoon Noru strengthened quickly before landfall. NPR talks to AOS Faculty Member Gabriel Vecchi, deputy director of CIMES, about climate-fueled intensification.
How big are ocean currents? That question has been posed by generations of oceanographers, with partial answers available through measurements from ships, satellites, and numerical simulations. However, the answers were generally limited by methods used to decompose the kinetic energy of ocean currents according to their…
