Description of scientific projects
Currently developing a new national network to monitor climate change. The U.S. Climate Reference Network will be a cornerstone to understanding climate change on a national scale. The are some unique challenges in understanding how to incorporate these data with the existing historical record, developing new climate indices, developing products that could improve existing computer models and perhaps using the data to groundtruth specific satellite measurements.
