In partnership with New York community groups, Cornell researchers are developing a hyperlocal weather forecasting system designed to help emergency response.
At a glacier near the South Pole, Grace Barcheck, Patrick Fulton, and collaborators have found evidence of a quiet, slow-motion fault slip that triggers strong, fast-slip earthquakes many miles away.
Cornell wind energy scientists, Sara C. Pryor and Rebecca Barthelmie, have released a new global wind atlas – a digital compendium filled with documented extreme wind speeds for all parts of the world – to help engineers select the turbines in any given region and accelerate the development of sustainable energy.
Assistant Professor Peter Hitchcock and Senior Lecturer Mark Wysocki, received an Innovation grant from the Cornell University Center for Teaching Innovation to incorporate the Jupyter Notebook app into their Atmospheric Dynamics course which allows students to use real forecast data.
Professor Natalie Mahowald, among other Cornell sustainability leaders, spoke at the 2020 NYS Sustainability Conference that focused on connections between human health, social justice, feeding the world's growing population, and keeping the atmosphere cool.
Five Cornell faculty members have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest general scientific society.
Warren Knapp, professor emeritus in EAS, died on Oct 3rd. Knapp brought engineering skill to the study of weather and climate, finding sophisticated and precise ways to measure and record day-to-day and annual fluctuations in temperature, radiation, precipitation and pollution.
Collaborators from across Cornell University, including Esteban Gazel and Megan Holycross, were awarded $1M to mine rare-earth minerals used in consumer electronics and advanced renewable energy using programmed microbes.
A research team from the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences has received a $1.4 million grant from NASA to lead a study of how volcanic ash from past eruptions affected the Earth, and the potential impact of future eruptions.
The cross-college partnership between Sara C. Pryor from Cornell's Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, and Rebecca Barthelmie from the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering directly supports research in sustainability. The project is designed to unlock the power of wind energy off the Eastern Seaboard.
