Jennifer Francis became Senior Scientist at the Woods Hole Research Center after being a research professor at Rutgers Universityâs Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences.
She gave an interview to Miami Herald reporter Alex Harris on Hurricanes & Climate Change a day after the beginning of the official annual hurricane season that goes from June first to November 30th, giving a forecast that in essence came true.
Live on Zoom this became one of the most detailed and fact-filled conversations about how natural phenomena such as El Nino and La Nina, and even dust storms from the Sahara desert, interact with warmer oceans and one foot higher sea levels and changes in the ocean currents that make hurricane seasons longer and stronger. All this plays out in the Gulf of Mexico and up the East of the US
Alex Harris is staff reporter for the Miami Herald with an impressive grad student level of understanding of the science. Recorded via Zoom on 6/2/2020
