Please join us at an in-person Town Hall with Dr. Richard Spinrad, Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans & Atmosphere and Administrator of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The details are as follows:
 

NOAA Town Hall
Friday, March 25, 2022
12:30 p.m. - 1:45 p.m.
Monell Auditorium, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
61 Route 9W, Palisades, NY, 10964
 

NOAA is one of the most important and visionary research sponsors for the Climate School and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory; over the last five years, NOAA has awarded us 65 projects totaling $35M. As NOAA advances its new strategic plan - prioritizing the Blue Economy, local climate services, and equity and inclusion - this is an important opportunity for us to showcase our community’s research innovation and impact, influence the agency’s priorities, and forge increasingly meaningful long-term partnerships. 

The Town Hall will include lightning talks by Columbia researchers, a strategic plan presentation by Dr. Spinrad, and an opportunity for Questions & Answers. Remote attendance will not be possible at this time. 

We very much hope that you will join us for this Town Hall in-person in the Monell Auditorium on the Lamont campus; for our colleagues based on other campuses, we encourage you to take advantage of the Intercampus Shuttle.
