Solving for climate: Do go chasing hurricanes
from Third Pod from the Sun · host American Geophysical Union
Jane Baldwin is a storm chaser, only her mode of chasing is computational modeling using multiple streams of data. As an Assistant Professor of Earth System Science at UC Irvine, she models how hurricanes and other natural hazards respond to atmospheric dynamics. We talked to Jane about the challenge of forecasting not just the damage to buildings from cyclones, but also the economic and social impacts. And how climate change factors into the outcomes.This episode was produced by Devin Reese and mixed by Collin Warren. Artwork by Jace Steiner.
