Constraining Uncertainty in the Human Impacts of Climate Change

Constraining Uncertanty in the Human Impacts of Climate Change

Tuesday, October 15, @ 4:30 PM in Axinn Center, room 229

Justin’s lecture will explore the climate change impacts on people and the things they value, by drawing examples from violent conflict, economic growth, and water resources. By linking geophysical changes with human consequences, while quantifying and constraining uncertainty in estimates, his work documents past effects and anticipates future risks to ensure that scientific findings are sound, transparent, and useful for adapting to a warmer world.
