Topics

Our ability to observe and forecast severe weather events has improved markedly over the past few decades. Yet hazardous weather continues to cause loss of life and result in other preventable social costs. There is growing recognition that a host of social and behavioral factors affect how we prepare for, observe, predict, respond to, and are impacted by weather hazards. This report explores and provides guidance on the challenges of integrating social and behavioral sciences within the weather enterprise.
