Applied Climate Research Publications

The Northeast Regional Climate Center conducts research studies that focus on the development of new climate information products, data analysis techniques, and applications of climate data that will broaden the scope and enhance the value of the Center's services to present and potential clients in the region. Studies are also undertaken that are directed toward understanding and characterizing regional climate and climate variability as it may affect the economic or societal well being of the northeastern United States.

NRCC's Research Series reports make available the full results of climate research projects that have been performed or supported by the center. The results of NRCC research is also published in scientific literature. To view a publication, click the link at the end of the abstract.
