When you see the names DYE2, EGIG, GRIP, Ice Bridge and MABEL you view the elite list of Arctic science projects that deliver(ed) groundbreaking climate information through the last 50 years, and if all goes as [...]]]> http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/04/11/connecting-the-past-the-present-and-the-future-to-understand-climate/feed/ 0 http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/03/09/a-controversy-fracturing-in-the-marcellus-shale/ http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/03/09/a-controversy-fracturing-in-the-marcellus-shale/#comments Fri, 09 Mar 2012 18:18:06 +0000 EICES Guest Blogger http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/?p=23716 The organic-rich source rock of the Marcellus Shale is an on-going target for massive gas extraction. Advances in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, or hydrofracking, have made this extensive area of Marcellus black shale one of the largest unconventional and widely controversial gas operations in the United States today.]]> http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/03/09/a-controversy-fracturing-in-the-marcellus-shale/feed/ 1 http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/02/08/biodiversity-in-the-shawangunk-mountains/ http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/02/08/biodiversity-in-the-shawangunk-mountains/#comments Wed, 08 Feb 2012 16:08:48 +0000 EICES Guest Blogger http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/?p=22520 Recently ranked highest in biological diversity and as one of the "last great places on Earth", the Shawangunk Mountains are being actively reintroduced to forest fires in an attempt to preserve biodiversity.]]> http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/02/08/biodiversity-in-the-shawangunk-mountains/feed/ 0 http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2010/08/10/think-globally-act-locally-climate-adaptation-in-action/ http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2010/08/10/think-globally-act-locally-climate-adaptation-in-action/#comments Tue, 10 Aug 2010 07:16:11 +0000 Andrea Basche http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/?p=5463 Across Indonesia, several effective climate adaptation actions on local levels are underway. These actions serve as a reminder of the important change that starts with a community of dedicated individuals. ]]> http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2010/08/10/think-globally-act-locally-climate-adaptation-in-action/feed/ 2
