The Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy (ACCAP) will host a
webinar titled "El Nino and Alaska - Past, Present, and Future" on
Tuesday, 26 August 2014 from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. AKDT. Webinar
presenters are Rick Thoman of the National Weather Service and Jon
Gottschalck of the NOAA Climate Prediction Center.
Variations in the tropical Pacific Ocean and atmosphere are an important
contributor to seasonal weather and climate variability over large
portions of the globe, including Alaska. The warm phase of this
variation, El Nino, is favored to be in place for the upcoming fall and
winter seasons. Speakers will review the current state of El Nino and
expected development over the next several months and examine how
variations in the tropical Pacific can affect high latitude regions such
as Alaska. The webinar will finish up with a look at how past El Nino
falls and winters have turned out and review the forecast for this
coming cold season for Alaska.
