Iowa State University Climate Science Program

Current climate-related research includes both basic research on climate change and impacts of climate change. With colleagues Arritt and Gutowski, I am co-PI on the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program. Research on climate-change impacts includes assessing the interactive roles of climate and land-manager choices on land-use/land-cover change in agricultural area, development and evaluation of downscaling tools for near-surface flow and impacts of climate change on wind power, evaluating effects of climate changes on Midwest agroecosystems using a climate-crop coupled model, and assessment of variability and trends in Iowa climate data on pavement performance by use of a mechanistic-empirical...
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
