But credit for discovering climate change was given to someone else who made the same discovery three years later. We celebrate Foote's role in early climate science by recreating her little-known experiment and asking if there are some voices that continue to be overlooked in climate science today – and how we overcome these climate blind spots?

I am welcoming Ute Brönner and Martin Visbeck, co-leaders of the UN Ocean Decade Programme DITTO, Digital Twins of the Ocean. Ute Brönner is a senior project manager at Sintef Ocean, a research institute in Norway, and Martin leads the Physical Oceanography department at the GEOMAR Institute for ocean research in Kiel, Germany. While their respective work and academic background is not necessarily the same, they have come together in the last years to advocate for an international, standardized and organised approach to designing digital twins of the ocean. In the episode we discuss exactly how their idea came to life, what their common work entails and most importantly what digital twins will be able to do as well as current barriers to their creation. This is a really fantastic and exciting topic, because digital twins really cover all aspects of ocean professions, from observations using robotics, scientific data analysis, high computational modelling and social sciencees.  They could be a massively effective tool to help governments make smart decisions to mitigate worst effects of the climate crisis, allow us to look into a possible future before implementing actual technologies or inventions in marine and coastal areas and test hypothesis. Unfortunately, we had a lot of sound issues and both guest recordings weren't perfectly editable, I hope you can overlook that and still enjoy the episode and these stellar guests!

Ira Pastor, ideaXme life sciences ambassador and founder of Bioquark interviews Dr. Frank D. Marks, MS, ScD, Director of Hurricane Research Division, at NOAA. Ira Pastor comments: Weather and climate disasters affect the world's population. The total approximate cost of damages from weather and climate disasters in the U.S. alone from 1980 to 2019, is over $1.75 trillion, and a major component of that damage results from hurricanes. Few things in nature can compare to the destructive force of a hurricane. Called the "Greatest Storm On Earth", a hurricane is capable of annihilating coastal areas with sustained winds of 155 miles per hour or higher, intense areas of rainfall, and a storm surge. In fact, during it's life cycle a hurricane can expend as much energy as 10,000 nuclear bombs! The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is an American scientific agency, within the United States Department of Commerce, that focuses on the conditions of the oceans, major waterways, and the atmosphere. NOAA warns of dangerous weather, charts seas, guides the use and protection of ocean and coastal resources, and conducts research to provide the understanding and improve stewardship of the environment. Dr. Frank D. Marks, is Director of Hurricane Research Division, at NOAA: Dr. Marks is a recognized expert in tropical cyclones and is the leader of the NOAA tropical cyclone research efforts as the research lead of NOAA is Hurricane Forecast Improvement Project (HFIP) and the director of the Hurricane Research Division of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorology Laboratory. Dr. Marks also serves as co-lead of the NOAA Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorological Services and Supporting Research (OFCM) Working Group for Tropical Cyclone Research (WG/TCR). His research interests include analyzing meteorological remote sensing (e.g., microwave radar and radiometer) and numerical model data sets, particularly in tropical cyclones and mesoscale convective systems to understand the storm kinematic and precipitation structure. Besides his role within NOAA Dr. Marks is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Meteorology and Physical Oceanography at the University of Miami, as well as a Fellow of the Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) at the University of Miami Rosenstiel School for Marine and Atmospheric Sciences. Dr. Marks received a B.S. in Meteorology from Belknap College (1973) and both an M.S. (1975) and Sc.D. (1981) in Meteorology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Dr. Marks is a member of the American Meteorlogical Society (AMS) and became a Fellow of the AMS in 2000. He served as a member of AMS Committee on Radar Meteorology and of the AMS Council. On this ideaXme episode we will hear from Dr. Marks about: - His background - how he became interested in science, in meteorology, in hurricane research, and a little bit of his career journey through the academic and government sectors to date - A general introduction to NOAA and specifically the Hurricane Research Division - A discussion of core research priorities of the Hurricane Research Division - Technological developments that Dr. Marks is personally most excited about looking forward over the next decade or two, such as artificial intelligence/ machine learning in the forecasting process - The SUSTAIN lab or the "Surge Structure Atmosphere Interaction" lab - University of Miami US$45 million initiative to produce hurricanes up to a category 5 level (the strongest there is), with wind speeds reaching more than 252 km/h (157 mph). - This history of NOAA attempts to "stop a hurricane in its track" and Project STORMFURY - His experiences with flying into a hurricane on the NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircrafts Credits: Ira Pastor, ideaXme ambassador interview.

The ocean plays a major role in regulating Earth’s temperature through exchange of chemicals and microbes with the atmosphere. When waves break, ocean-derived biological species including viruses and bacteria are transferred into the atmosphere. These species can ultimately form clouds, altering precipitation and climate. Highlights will be presented of novel experiments being conducted in a unique ocean-atmosphere simulator developed by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for Aerosol Impacts on Chemistry of the Environment (CAICE). Kimberly Prather, Professor of Climate, Atmospheric Science, and Physical Oceanography at UC San Diego will focus on recent CAICE studies aimed at advancing our understanding of how the oceans influence human and planetary health.

Dr. Thijs Heus is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at Cleveland State University. Thijs’s research focuses on clouds and the impact they have on weather and climate. Some of the effects clouds can have include reflecting sunlight (which lowers temperatures) and transporting heat and moisture through the atmosphere. However, clouds remain one of the major sources of uncertainty in climate and weather predictions, partly due to their relatively small size and varying shapes. Thijs uses computer models and simulations to determine, for instance, what happens to clouds when temperatures change, and how the size of clouds impacts weather and climate. When the weather is nice, you can often find Thijs outdoors running. He also enjoys spending time with his family, cooking, and indulging in the many museums, music venues, sporting events, and restaurants in Cleveland, Ohio. He received Masters degrees in Physics as well as Meteorology and Physical Oceanography from Utrecht University in the Netherlands. Afterwards, he attended Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands where he was awarded a PhD in Applied Physics. Next, Thijs conducted postdoctoral research with the Department of Climate Services of The Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute and then at the Hans Ertel Center of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology. Thijs also worked as Researcher at the Institute of Geophysics and Meteorology at the University of Cologne before accepting his current position at Cleveland State. He has been awarded the Faculty Merit Recognition Award from Cleveland State University, as well as Undergraduate Research Awards for the work of his students. In this interview, Thijs shares more about his life and science.

Listen here as Dr. Lagerloef, senior scientist at Earth and Space Research, talks with BCB host Sonia Scaer about his climate research. In Gary's presentation he will explain the many aspects of climate research based on satellite measurements and some new findings since the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 2013. IPCC reports cover "the scientific, technical and socio-economic information relevant to understanding the scientific basis of risk of human-induced climate change, its potential impacts and options for adaptation and mitigation.” Dr. Lagerloef began his career in oceanography as an undergraduate, completed a Ph.D. in Physical Oceanography at the University of Washington in 1984, and later worked in private sector marine science. From 1988-1990, he served as Physical Oceanography Program Manager at NASA in Washington DC in the ocean science remote sensing program. In 1995, he co-founded Earth and Space Research, a non-profit scientific research institute in Seattle where he has developed several research projects devoted to studies of the upper ocean dynamics and climate variability using satellites.

This event was recorded on March 27, 2015. On Friday, March 27, 2015, the American Meteorological Society (AMS) and the Secure World Foundation (SWF) hosted a luncheon panel discussion from 12:00pm to 2:00pm EST on  “Challenges In Sharing Weather Satellite Spectrum With Terrestrial Networks” in Washington, DC. In order to meet the growing demand for wireless broadband connectivity, the U.S. government is developing strategies to share radio frequency spectrum between federal and commercial users. Spectrum historically reserved for broadcasting meteorological satellite data to users from the current generation of polar-orbiting satellites was recently auctioned nationwide by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for over $2.4 billion. Federal regulators are now studying additional bands that may be shared in a future spectrum auction, including those currently used to download weather data from NOAA’s Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) and for the future GOES-R series. If GOES downlink spectrum is selected for sharing, there is a possibility of radio frequency interference between the new terrestrial commercial broadcasts and the existing satellite broadcasts that may render the satellite-received data unusable or degraded. Such interference could have significant impacts on the GOES-Variable (GVAR), GOES-R GOES Rebroadcast (GRB), the Emergency Managers Weather Information Network (EMWIN) -  which is used to support first responders around the country, High-Rate or Low-Rate Information Transmission (HRIT or LRIT), as well as relay of hydrometeorological data from the GOES Data Collection System (DCS), used for monitoring and warning of floods. A panel of experts discussed these issues, including the motivation for the sharing, potential impacts to end users of any interference, and options for mitigating potential interference.

The second lecture of a series entitled 'Climate Connections' was presented by Carl Wunsch, Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physical Oceanography at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In this talk, Prof Wunsch considers the perhaps unique problems faced by scientists and the public in understanding climate change. The problems include the very long times over which climate can and does change--far longer than human working lifetimes; the intuitive belief that the world is deterministic with randomness unimportant; the corresponding tendency to see patterns where none exist; the insistence by governments that scientists must tell them what will happen in the future; the liking of many scientists for the media limelight; the widespread confusion between weather and climate; the rise of 'sophisticated' computer models; Etc.
