Kevin Gurney, Northern Arizona University, will present "The Need and Potential Development of a Greenhouse Gas Emissions Information System in the US and Globally."
Kevin Gurney is a professor at Northern Arizona University. His training is in atmospheric science, ecology and public policy. His current research topics include carbon cycle science, climate science, and climate science policy.
His recent projects involve simulation of the global carbon cycle using the inverse approach, quantifying fossil fuel CO2 from the building to global scale (the "Hestia", "Vulcan" and "FFDAS" projects), the relationships between US energy demand/supply and climate change, the linkages between terrestrial carbon exchange and climate variability, and the impacts of deforestation on climate. He also has worked extensively on climate policy and have been involved, for over 25 years, with the United Nations Climate Change Framework Convention and the Kyoto Protocol. In addition to carbon cycle science and policy, he has worked on stratospheric ozone depletion, radionuclide dose assessment, energy systems modeling, and climate-economic modeling.
