Our Common Climate: Variability and Climate Change in the U.S. - Mexico Western Border Region

Please join us for the annual Keeling lecture in honor of Scripps
Professor Charles David Keeling’s life and invaluable contributions
to climate science and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
Tereza Cavazos's will present an overview of relevant climate
drivers shared in the US-Mexico western border region, as well as
their possible changes and impacts. From extreme weather to
droughts, from the monsoon rains to the jet stream and El Niño
events, these variations see no artificial borders; however,
adaptation to climate change poses major challenges particularly
south of the border. Delays in finding feasible and equitable
actions can have severe consequences for present and future
generations. Series: "Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean
