R-Shiny App to Project Daily Snowfall and Rainfall
The NC CASC Climate Science Support Platform has developed a new R-Shiny app to quantify daily snowfall and rainfall quantities from total daily precipitation data in both observations (gridMET) and future projections (MACAv2-METDATA). Often the observed and projected precipitation data do not distinguish between snowfall and rainfall. Based on our best current understanding, this new application uses relationship between the phase of precipitation and the temperature and relative humidity metrics to quantify proportion of daily precipitation falling as rainfall or snowfall.
Dr. Christy Miller-Hesed to Co-facilitate "Climate Change and Climate Adaptation Training for Grasslands Conservation Practitioners"
North American grasslands are a regional priority of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The South Central CASC, in partnership with the US FWS Science Applications Program, the Northwest CASC, and the North Central CASC, will be implementing a training series for grasslands conservation practitioners starting in May 2022. Through our training series, we will introduce practitioners to the science of climate change, explore the impacts, and discuss adaptation options available.
