</div>
<div class="">Please join us this <b class="">Thursday October 20</b> for our next Meteorology seminar, given by <a href="https://staff.ucar.edu/users/morss" class="">Dr. Rebecca Morss</a>, a Senior Scientist and Deputy Director of the Mesoscale and Microscale
Meteorology (MMM) Laboratory at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). Dr. Morss will speak about “<i class="">Extreme weather risks and decisions in society”
</i><span class="" style="font-style:normal">(see abstract below)</span><i class="">. </i>This is an especially timely topic given recent events in Florida. </div>
<div class=""><i class=""><br class="">

<div class=""><font face="Helvetica, Arial" class="" style="font-family:Helvetica"><b class="">ABSTRACT: </b></font><font face="Helvetica, Arial" class="">This presentation will discuss research to understand and improve weather risk communication and societal
decision making, with a focus on tropical cyclone hazards. I will begin by describing how reducing the negative impacts of extreme weather risks requires understanding interactions among physical and human systems. Next, I will discuss the roles of scientific
information and risk communication in weather and climate decision making, together with other influencing factors. I will then describe how creation, communication, interpretation, and use of weather information in the modern environment is a complex, non-linear system,
and how this dynamic perspective opens up new opportunities for research and practice. I will also present examples from research illustrating how different types of interdisciplinary methods, including interviews, social media data analysis, surveys, and
computational modeling, can be used to build understanding and develop strategies for improving outcomes when extreme weather threatens.</font></div>
