New Georgia Climate Website introduced by Pam Knox
As part of the
Southeast Climate Extension project
whose goal is to advance climate extension in agriculture, we have developed a new website which should serve as a clearinghouse for information on climate and weather in Georgia.
The website provides the following information:
- A daily blog post on climate and weather from our agricultural climatologist, Pam Knox.
- A news feed of climate-related stories relevant to agriculture.
- Links to Extension fact sheets on climate (see link at top of page)
- A glossary of relevant terms (see link at top of page)
- State maps of 14 environmental parameters from the Georgia Automated Environmental Monitoring Network (GAEMN).
- Links to a variety of useful tools such as a Degree Day Calculator, Freeze Risk Probabilities, Chilling Hours Calculator, and many others.
- Current drought conditions in Georgia from the U.S. Drought Monitor
- El Ni�o Southern Oscillation (ENSO) climate phase forecast

Southeast Climate Adaptation Working Group Session at the upcoming National Adaptation Forum
SECC is be a co-convener of this regional working group session to be held at NAF in St. Louis (May 12-14).
Working group description: The Southeastern United States (including the Caribbean) is a diverse landscape of natural and built systems, people, and organizations that faces a number of climate adaptation challenges and opportunities. A working group will convene organizations and partners from throughout the region to share existing and proposed adaptation projects that focus on decision-centered science to address climate impacts.
Register for the NAF here; and email skrantz@ufl.edu if you are attending and have interest in participating in the working group.
