Description:

In January 2021 work began on a NOAA Climate Pro-gram Office funded project “that develops and tests a potential rapid event analysis and assessment ca-pability” (NOAA Climate Program Office 2020). This 3.5–yr effort brings together scientists from four NOAA Laboratories/Centers and university scientists at two of NOAA’s Cooperative Institutes. This funded project has two high-level goals: 1) to address outstanding dataset, model, and methodological gaps in explain-ing extreme events within a changing climate, and 2) to build a prototype rapid event attribution system for temperature-related and drought extremes that could eventually serve routine climate information needs at local, state, and regional levels.
