A Georgia Tech-led review paper recently published in Nature Reviews Physics is exploring the ways machine learning is revolutionizing the field of climate physics — and the role human scientists might play.
In fact, every decade since 1984, when satellite recordkeeping of ocean temperatures started, has been warmer than the previous one.
Donglai Yang, a second-year PhD student in geophysics, was selected as one of two recipients of the 2025 iHARP Polar Informatics graduate fellowship.
The College of Sciences launched its Young Alumni Board, a volunteer-based leadership group that is tasked with deepening the relationship between recent Yellow Jacket graduates and the College. The inaugural Board consists of 13 members who obtained an u

Wildfires are becoming a bigger focus for scientists that study air pollution, said Nga Lee (Sally) Ng, professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. Ng is also the principal investigator of ASCENT, a new federally funded, national monitoring network that began last year to measure a wide range of air pollutants in real time. The readings from the Los Angeles area fires were captured at the network’s monitoring station in Pico Rivera, several miles from the active fires.

January 20, 2025In this piece, Zachary Handlos, senior academic professional in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, explains the work of climatologists, stating that “climatologists can take on a lot of roles. It’s important to understand the difference between weather and climate. So weather is the study of what's going on in the atmosphere right now. Climatology looks at data for a certain day and compares it to what’s called a climate normal. What this means is, they take a 30-year period of data for that day, and from that baseline, say, ‘Oh, the temperature today is above average or below average.'”
