</b>The earth’s climate has always been in flux and will continue to change in the future. The dynamics of atmospheric and oceanic circulation are driven by many forces, acting at different frequencies, that act in concert. Now, human activities are exerting
pressure on these natural systems on a large scale. In this illustrated presentation, Dr. Jacobson will help us understand how scientists draw from the long-term climate record to predict what the future may bring.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
