Earth's Radiation Budget

Community Engagement

The ERB Program has provided support for community workshops and events, including:

• DOE-NOAA Marine Cloud Brightening Workshop (April 2022)
• 10th International GEOS-Chem Meeting (June 2022)
• 2022 Climate Engineering Gordon Research Conference (June 2022)
• iCACGP-IGAC 2022 (September 2022)
• 7th SPARC General Assembly (October 2022)
• NSF NCAR Second Community Climate Intervention Strategies Workshop (October 2022)
• 2023 Earth’s Radiation Budget Science Meeting (November 2023)
