Weather forecasters have long known that El Niño events can throw seasonal climate patterns off kilter, particularly during winter months. Now new research from JISAO and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrationsuggests that a different way to detect El Niño could help forecasters predict the unusual weather it causes. Andrew Chiodi is a co-author; click here to read more.
In a paper coming out this month, researchers from JISAO and NOAA describe a new way to detect which El Nino events will have the greatest impact on winter weather. The signal is coming from the tops of the clouds. Andrew Chiodi is mentioned; read more here!

A new study finds that soot, smoke and smog — black carbon — is the second largest contributor to climate change, after carbon dioxide. These results are surprising, and may point the way to some immediate paths for climate change mitigation. JISAO‘s Sarah Doherty and ATMOS‘ Stephen Warren are co-authors; read more here or check out the paper!
Are you or someone you know looking for a great way to gain field experience, meet scientists, and engage in scientific research? Check out JISAO’s summer internship program, which is taking applications for summer 2013. Interns love it, according to Seattle Met!
The Seattle Seahawks win more home games than they lose. This we know… but when it’s raining or snowing, they perform even better. JISAO‘s Nick Bond crunched the numbers; read more here!
