A new study supported by NOAA Climate Program Office’s Climate Variability and Predictability (CVP) program, led by CIRES and the University of Colorado Boulder, uses maps built with machine learning to identify large-scale atmospheric patterns that are linked with the start of seasonal sea ice melt in the Arctic.

NOAA’s HYSPLIT (Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory) atmospheric dispersion model now integrates features from a widely used greenhouse gas emissions model, thanks to a competitive grant project.
