Geographic analysis amp; visualization of climate extremes for the Quadrennial Defense Review

摘要

We have developed demonstrable capabilities in the area of geographic analysis and visualization for climate extremes, uncertainty and impacts. The capabilities were used for to provide climate science support to an international climate change war game, where real-world policy makers, as well as business, political and science leaders from around the world, engaged in a mock policy negotiations. We have since further developed the capabilities for supporting the development of the Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) by the Office of the Secretary of Defense within the United States Department of Defense (DOD).
