Exploring NJ’s Climate Variability & Change

March 27, 2018 at 8:00 am - 9:30 am

Great Swamp Watershed Association HQ

Together, we all just faced some of the most severe weather we’ve seen in New Jersey since Hurricane Sandy, causing wide-spread power outages, thousands of downed trees, and major structural damage. In less than four weeks, we went from a stone-cold winter, to a beautiful, 80-degree day, to relentless winds, to 26-plus inches of snow in some parts of the state.

 

In the past decade, New Jersey has experienced its wettest and warmest years in over a century of observations. Extreme events of late suggest that something is happening to our climate regime.

 

We’ve asked Dr. David Robinson, a professor in the Department of Geography & a NJ State Climatologist at Rutgers University, to help us explore the physical dimensions of the issue, both short and long term.  Dr. Robinson will also help us learn how we can get more involved in the monitoring of weather and climate conditions in our local regions.
