Clouds darkening over NOAA research. We are slated for elimination in next years budget. Astonishing loss to the nation and the world if it happens.
BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency.

Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

My PhD research reveals that current IMO regulations on NOx emissions are not achieving the expected reductions from newer ships. Our findings, along with insights from my colleagues, have prompted the IMO to reconsider these regulations.
