Maine Climate News

October 20th, 2009

Recognizing the need for a centralized, neutral source of climate information specific to Maine, University of Maine Cooperative Extension and Maine Sea Grant have created Maine Climate News in partnership with George Jacobson, Maine State Climatologist. The site is intended to be a portal to climate change science and research at the University of Maine and beyond, as well as a resource for news and climate-related activities throughout the state. The site will be updated quarterly with new features and articles.

Climate change is a complex and dynamic issue. It can seem overwhelming. Maine Climate News provides information you can use, and presents the results of research you can trust. While much of our focus is on coastal climate change impacts, the information in this site is also intended to provide useful information from our state climatologist to a broad audience. If you have any questions or suggestions for the Maine State Climatologist, or content for this new site, please let us know:  Esperanza Stancioff, Climate Change Educator, UMaine Cooperative Extension & Maine Sea Grant, esp@umext.maine.edu.
