Development of Assessment Tools for Downscaled Global Climate Models (Web-based)
These two webinars focus on research efforts to develop climate change assessment tools use at DoD facilities. The first presentation is titled: "Development of a Decision Support Aid System Connecting Climate Model Downscaling and DoD Infrastructure". This presentation will addresses the increasing vulnerability of DoD infrastructure to extreme weather events exacerbated by climate change. It emphasizes the need for site-specific climate information, which bridges the gap between coarse-resolution global climate models (GCMs) and the localized conditions affecting DoD installations. The second presentation is titled: "Fit for Purpose? An Integrative Assessment of State-of-the-Science Downscaling Methods for DoD Infrastructure Planning" This research addresses the challenge of evaluating climate risks to DoD infrastructure across different U.S. regions, including Alaska and Hawaii. The study criticizes the lack of a standardized assessment framework for downscaling methods, which complicates effective climate adaptation planning within the DoD. To address this gap, the project aims to develop a decision support tool that systematically evaluates various downscaling methods in terms of their design, performance, and relevance to specific DoD installations and climate threat variables.
