A remarkable journey has brought Mason Professor Jagadish Shukla from his childhood in rural India to world prominence as a climate researcher.

��ɫ��Ƶ will bring its array of resources and expertise to bear in the state’s efforts to increase resilience to the impacts of climate change with the creation of the Virginia Climate Center.

Rising sea levels as a result of climate change are a national security threat and imperil the Virginia economy.

The first event this semester features Jagadish Shukla, Distinguished University Professor and managing director of the Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies, who will address “Climate Change: Science, Politics and Ethics.”

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is working with a group of scientists from Mason’s Center for Ocean Land Atmosphere Studies (COLA) to update its drought forecasting system.
