Rutgers Professor Mark Miller Studies Marine Cloud Systems to Better Understand Their Role in a Warming Climate
Marine cloud systems are a critical component of the Earth’s climate system because they reflect incoming sunlight that would otherwise heat the ocean below. Solid overcast over northern latitude ocean regions yields to partly cloudy skies in the tropics, while the mid-latitudes serve as a transition between these two marine cloud regimes. While there is a […]
Rutgers Study Unveils New Carbon Mitigation Solutions to Combat Climate Change
Increasing adoption of agricultural practices such as cover cropping, grazing management and agroforestry can increase the amount of carbon stored in soils to help combat climate change, according to a new report by researchers from Rutgers University-New Brunswick and the University of Maine. The study, titled “Ecosystem Service Valuation Approaches and Carbon Mitigation Considerations for […]
Rutgers Team Selected by ArcGIS to Pilot New ArcGIS Online Image Tool
The premium Geographic Information System (GIS) software application ArcGIS enables handling and analyzing geographic information by visualizing geographical statistics through layer building maps. It is often used by academic institutions to develop and illustrate research in the humanities and sciences. It has, however, historically been harder to use with Apple computers. The ArcGIS online Software As a System (SAS) tool made it easier for all computer users to work with […]
