from Tidal Flooding Talk · host Joe Martucci
Dr. Venkatachalam “Ram” Ramaswamy, director of NOAA’s Geophysical Dynamics Fluid Laboratory (www.gfdl.noaa.gov), discussed shifting atmospheric river patterns. Research shows East Coast atmospheric rivers are increasing in frequency, impacting populated areas, while West Coast events are decreasing. These changes, linked to climate patterns like El Niño, affect precipitation, flooding, and water management, with models improving predictions.Experience Tidal Flooding Talk every Tuesday at 7PM, America’s leading show on coastal flooding resilience. Hosted by the New Jersey Coastal Coalition, which formed after Superstorm Sandy in 2012, it empowers leaders with dynamic workshops. Visit njcoastalcoalition.com to learn more!
