New York Climate Change Science Web Archive

Collected by: Cornell University Library

Archived since: May, 2014

Description:

New York State is poised to become a leader in planning for and adapting to the impacts of climate change. Climate change science is a broad and diverse field, and sorting through and understanding the amount and detail of scientific information available is a challenge to scientists, engineers, policy makers and practitioners alike. To address these challenges the Northeast States for Coordinated Air Use Management (NESCAUM), Cornell University, State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY-ESF) and the federal National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have teamed up to create the New York Climate Change Science Clearinghouse (NYCCSC). Funded by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), the NYCCSC will be a regional, web-based interface for accessing data, documents, maps and information relevant to climate change adaptation and mitigation across New York State. Because the site is meant as a portal for discovery of a broad range of information held and maintained elsewhere, this collection will serve as an archive of the changing content climate change websites relevant to and discoverable via the NYCCSC.

Title: Protecting Coastal Communities, NOAA's Office for Coastal Management

URL: http://coast.noaa.gov/

Description: "Coastal management refers to actions taken to keep residents safe, the economy sound, and natural resources functioning. This is accomplished with federal and state partnership programs. Federal legislation provides the overarching mandates; NOAA's Office for Coastal Management oversees implementation and provides technical assistance; federally approved state programs provide day-to-day implementation." -- from the website, 1/31/2017 "The National Coastal Zone Management Program comprehensively addresses the nation’s coastal issues through a voluntary partnership between the federal government and coastal and Great Lakes states and territories. Authorized by the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, the program provides the basis for protecting, restoring, and responsibly developing our nation’s diverse coastal communities and resources." -- from the website, 1/31/2017

Title: National Climate Assessment: Coasts, U.S. Global Change Research Program National Climate Assessment: Coasts, Coastal Zone Development and Ecosystems

URL: http://nca2014.globalchange.gov/report/regions/coasts/

Description: "The National Climate Assessment summarizes the impacts of climate change on the United States, now and in the future. A team of more than 300 experts guided by a 60-member Federal Advisory Committee produced the report, which was extensively reviewed by the public and experts, including federal agencies and a panel of the National Academy of Sciences." -- from the website, 1/21/2017 "Coastal lifelines, such as water and energy infrastructure, and nationally important assets, such as ports, tourism, and fishing sites, are increasingly vulnerable to sea level rise, storm surge, erosion, flooding, and related hazards. Socioeconomic disparities create uneven vulnerabilities." -- from the website, 1//22/2017
