Climate Consensus: Steps Toward a Global Understanding of Climate

The sea ice atop the Arctic Ocean can—as shown in this photograph from July 12, 2011—look more like Swiss cheese or a bright coastal wetland. Image source:Articles published for Earthzine's Climate Consensus: Steps Toward a Global Understanding of Climate theme (Dec. 22, 2011-March 21, 2012) address current issues, techniques and applications of Earth information for assessing the state of the climate, predicting near and long-term variations, the social benefits of climate monitoring and the humanitarian implications of climate information.

Call for Papers – Climate Consensus: Steps Toward a Global Understanding of Climate

The sea ice atop the Arctic Ocean can—as shown in this photograph from July 12, 2011—look more like Swiss cheese or a bright coastal wetland. Image source:Earthzine is soliciting articles of 800–3,000 words for its first quarter 2012 theme on climate. We seek contributions addressing current issues, techniques and applications of Earth information for assessing the state of the climate, predicting near and long-term variations, the social benefits of climate monitoring and the humanitarian implications of climate information.

NASA’s Modern Era Retrospective-analysis for Research and Applications: Integrating Earth Observations

Image showing 1 hourly precipitation in mm/day for 01:30Z01JUL1979. There are advantages and disadvantages to reanalyses for climate study. The main advantages are that global Earth observations (disparate distributions in space and time) are assimilated leading to uniformly gridded and globally available data. Reanalyses also combine many different types of observations into a single analysis.
