EPS Research Spotlight
In their recently published article in Nature, EPS graduate student
Alexander
(Zan) Stine, Harvard fauculty member Peter Huybers, and EPS
faculty member Inez Fung have found a shift towards earlier seasonal
transitions in the temperature record over extratropical land in the
last 57 years. This shift is anomolous when compared to the
variability seen in the preceeding 100 years, and is not
predicted by any of the model-based simulations
of 20th century climate reported by the IPCC.
(reprint)Zan Stine discusses this work on Nature's podcast.
