  • EAS Assistant Professor O'Brien Interview

EAS Faculty Dr. Travis O'Brien Interviewed on Climate Change and Recent Hot Weather

Thursday, August 11, 2022

Quoting Gabe Prough on WPTA Fort Wayne, "Travis O’Brien, a meteorology professor at Indiana University, notes that a warmer atmosphere means more heat extremes, which is well-known from climate studies. He also acknowledges a warmer atmosphere can hold more water, meaning an increase in temperature leads to more fuel for storms."
