CCI Seminar Series: Bridging the gap between applied meteorology and climate science

Speaker: Dan Li, Associate Professor at Boston University

Abstract: As urban populations grow and the globe continues to warm, the importance of urban climate is not in dispute. The field of urban climate thrives when it draws on and balances insights from both applied meteorology and climate science. However, urban climate studies have predominantly taken an applied meteorology perspective. In this presentation, I will demonstrate how integrating climate science with applied meteorology can deepen our understanding of urban processes and support the development of solutions to pressing urban environmental challenges.
