![]() New NOAA Great Lakes Laboratory Opens, New Acting Director Named -- A larger facility to focus on Great Lakes issues opened today following a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) in Pittsfield Township, Mich. Research Meteorologist Wins First NOAA Science Communicator Award -- Keith Dixon, a NOAA scientist who demonstrates both skill and enthusiasm for communicating to the public about climate research and climate change, is the recipient of the first Dr. Daniel L. Albritton Outstanding Science Communicator Award. NOAA’s GFDL Hurricane Forecast Model Achieves High Accuracy in 2008 Season -- NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) hurricane forecast model performed extremely well again in the 2008 hurricane season, which ended November 30. NOAA Scientist to Receive Grande Medaille from French Academy -- For her scientific achievements, including pioneering research that helped explain the cause of the ozone hole, and her leadership as co-chair of Working Group 1 for the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report, NOAA Senior Scientist Susan Solomon will receive the Grande Medaille from the Institute of France’s Academy of Sciences. New Study Details Ocean Acidification in the Caribbean -- A new study, which confirms significant ocean acidification across much of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, reports strong natural variations in ocean chemistry in some parts of the Caribbean that could affect the way reefs respond to future ocean acidification. Such short-term variability has often been underappreciated and may prove an important consideration when predicting the long-term impacts of ocean acidification to coral reefs. ![]() Maintaining an active constituent relations program ensures that OAR and NOAA leadership communicate effectively and often with their most important customers. The recent Commerce and Transportation Roundtable solicited input to ensure NOAA’s research priorities support the Nation's commerce and transportation activities by providing information for safe, efficient, and environmentally sound transportation.
