The Climate Change Ahead: Global Change, Local Impacts
Rutgers University, New Brunswick, New Jersey
This symposium brings together members of the Rutgers community whose research addresses climate change and its effects on people, ecology, and economy of local areas such as New Jersey. The three interdisciplinary, focusing themes of the symposium are: observations and modeling of large scale climate change, effects of global climate change on coastal environments, and effects of global climate change on terrestrial ecosystems and freshwater resources.
