Save the Date: OAR and the Weather Program Office has invited NCAS-M to the first Extreme Weather Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES) Summit from February 18th-21st at the National Conservation Training Center (NCTC) in Shepherdstown, WV.
The Weather Program Office is convening this first-of-its-kind Summit to bring together researchers, managers, practitioners, and leaders across sectors and scientific disciplines to advance the integration of the social, behavioral, and economic sciences in addressing the societal challenges of extreme weather.
NCTC’s inclusive campus with on-site lodging, dining, and meeting facilities provides an exceptional setting for rich and in-depth opportunities to strengthen connections and enhance collaboration across OAR Programs and Labs in tandem with critical partners like the National Weather Service, academia, NOAA Cooperative Institutes, NOAA Cooperative Science Centers, other federal agencies, and more.
More details about the Summit, including a draft agenda, how to make reservations and services available on campus, will be available shortly on the WPO’s Social Science Program webpage.
