PA11. Climate Change Science for Communities and Institutions
Description: NASA Earth science is providing information at
appropriate geospatial scales to help businesses, institutions, and
local and regional communities plan for and adapt to future
environmental impacts of climate change. We invite submissions that
present current Earth science data acquisition, research, and
analytical methodology in contexts that bring climate science into
focus for practical applications and actions stemming from
sustainability policy and supporting strategies. Topics include
research on physical and biological CC impacts, understanding
regional and global linkages, adaptation strategies for natural and
built environments, institutional approaches and case studies leading
to mitigation and improved resilience.
