Spring 2021 Frank Talks are held via Zoom meeting Thursdays 4:30-5:30 PM
A department career fair designed to introduce students to the interview experience as well as the wide range of career opportunities available to them with a degree in meteorology.
A recent study by an international team of scientists including Raymond Najjar, professor of oceanography at Penn State, found that the flows of carbon through the complex network of water bodies that connect land and ocean has often been overlooked and that ignoring these flows overestimates the carbon storage in terrestrial ecosystems and underestimates sedimentary and oceanic carbon storage.
Even from the Arctic Circle in Alaska, Penn State professor Jose Fuentes is inspiring his students to learn and grow
Penn State Meteorology and Atmospheric Science faculty including Yunji Zhang, Eugene Clothiaux, Steven Greybush, Xingchao Chen and others lead research initiated by the late Fuqing Zhang for more accurate storm rainfall and intensity forecasts.
While climate change is making much of the world warmer, temperatures in a subpolar region of the North Atlantic are getting cooler. A team of researchers report that changes in the wind pattern, among other factors, may be contributing to this “cold blob.”
The vast majority of plastic pollution that makes its way into the rivers of the Chesapeake Bay stays in and along local waters and is not, as researchers put it, “exported” to the ocean.
