Extreme heat stresses humans, infrastructure, and ecosystems. Municipal and community actors working to mitigate the impacts of extreme heat require hyper-local information to help stakeholders make decisions about which solutions work best and what benefit they can expect for the populations they serve. This Seed Translational Research Project (STRP) is developing hyper-local simulations of micrometeorology of specific locations to evaluate solutions and their benefits. The STRP created a new graduate course (CLIM 759), where students will both learn the fundamental science of micrometeorology and develop needs-driven projects for stakeholders.
