Our findings on future extreme heat across Los Angeles are quoted in this The New York Times piece -- an informative read on the inequitable distribution of heat-mitigation efforts like shade-providing trees, and the City's leadership in addressing the issue. nytimes.com/2019/12/01/us/…


Our director, Alex Hall, was selected to give the Turco Lecture on the future of climate science at #AGU2019. He's calling on the field to raise its game to better predict climate impacts and equip society to respond. Full video: youtube.com/watch?v=NLS89j… AGU (American Geophysical Union) UCLA Environment

New research led by Xingying Huang on simulating extreme U.S. Pacific Coast #AtmosphericRiver storms. We found that our high resolution weather model configuration yielded substantial improvements in extreme precip representation.

New UCLA research: as climate warms, California will experience extreme rain and snow events that carry 20-30% more water, with intense hourly downpours & increased risk of flash floods. A Dr. Daniel Swain blog post explains the findings: weatherwest.com/archives/7364 UCLA Center for Climate Science


New work led by Xingying Huang on extreme #AtmosphericRiver storms in California in a warming climate is out today in Science Advances (open access)! A thread discussing our findings and their implications follows. #CAwx #CAwater #CAclimate (1/n) advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/29/e…
