The presentation will go into some background of the island, an explanation of the harm caused by petrochemical sunscreens, and the action plan we are taking to address this problem in favor of the health of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef.

NSF NCAR Explorer Series “Inside a weather modeling system: What can go wrong?”

NCAR Mesa Lab 1850 Table Mesa Drive Boulder, CO 80305

In this Explorer Series Lecture, NSF NCAR scientist Dr. May Wong will share how a numerical weather prediction modeling system provides a prediction of future weather given initial atmospheric conditions. She will discuss the challenges behind forecasting the weather with models, as well as how scientists are working to improve our ability to make these predictions. These improvements are especially important as we plan for a world with more extreme weather conditions.
