Climate Research and Development scientists will be participating in the virtual American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall 2020 meeting held from December 1-17, 2020. The scientists will be sharing their work through various posters, presentations, and panels. Topics covered fall into several broad categories:

  • Cryosphere science: changing glaciers, snow and avalanches, and permafrost
  • Impacts of change on coastal ecosystems, estuaries, and wetlands
  • Biogeochemical cycling: global carbon cycle and climate systems through time
  • Paleoclimatology: changing and variable climate from past to future
  • Soil science: above and belowground processes and connections in ecosystems

The program also had scientists participate in the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America, which was held virtually October 26-30, 2020. Climate R&D scientists presented both posters and talks that focused primarily on paleoclimate research efforts.
