Abstract:
|
In October 2007, the ASA sponsored a workshop bringing together statisticians and atmospheric scientists to reach a consensus on the statistical issues in climate change research and to identify areas where statisticians could play a strong role in future research. The models on which climate change projections are based are complex and rely on data that vary greatly in quality. This presentation will summarize the topics discussed at the workshop and the recommendations that were developed for future research.
