Dear Friends,
I’m so excited to welcome you to the inaugural issue of the CPAESS newsletter! The CPAESS Insider will keep you informed of what’s happening across the CPAESS family.
The newsletter will alert you to the work, research and achievements that weave together our program and will include:
- Important news about our operations
- Highlights on the various CPAESS programs; and
|
|
|
I would like us all to shine a spotlight on the incredible efforts and achievements in our remarkable program and to find yet another way to bring us together, as one program.
And that’s just for starters. The newsletter will evolve as we do, but what is important now is that we begin to find a way to communicate the far-reaching work of CPAESS, to know what links us all together and to find points of connection to achieve a truly collaborative program: to serve our community in the advancement of earth system science.
Please share with us your accomplishments, publications, presentations, promotions, and any exciting news that you would like us to include. Send us photos! Just click on the link above to send information to us. Be sure to be part of it!

We have instituted staff meetings for employees residing in states outside of Colorado. The largest group of staff that we have in one area is Washington DC, so on April 20 we held the second staff meeting there. We look forward to visiting staff in other areas throughout the year to share what we have been doing at CPAESS and to hear about your exciting work.

Hunter Jones Presentation at AMS

Hunter Jones' abstract has been accepted for presentation in the AMS's 23rd Conference on Applied Climatology held 26-28 June, 2017, Asheville, NC.
Communities across the nation are increasingly facing more extreme heat events. The latest National Climate Assessment (NCA) found that extreme heat events will be more frequent, more intense, and longer in duration in the future. “What now seems like an extremely hot day will become commonplace.”

Space Weather Workshop (SWW) is an annual conference that brings industry, academia, and government agencies together in a lively dialog about space weather.
What began in 1996 as a conference for the space weather user community, Space Weather Workshop has evolved into the Nation’s leading conference on all issues relating to space weather.
SWW is funded by NSF, NOAA and NASA.
