Using deep learning to image the Earth’s planetary boundary layer

MIT Lincoln Laboratory

This schematic of the planetary boundary layer (red line) shows exchanges of moisture and movement of aerosols that occur between the Earth's surface and this lowest level of the atmosphere. Lincoln Laboratory researchers are using deep learning techniques to learn more about PBL features, important for weather and climate studies.

A new way to quantify climate change impacts: “Outdoor days”

A new measure of rising temperatures, called “outdoor days,” describes the number of days per year that outdoor temperatures are neither too hot nor too cold for people to go about normal outdoor activities, whether work or leisure, in reasonable comfort.

Study measures the psychological toll of wildfires

Wildfires in Southeast Asia significantly affect the moods of people in many neighboring countries, with people becoming more upset if fires originate outside their own country, according to a new study analyzing social media activity. Pictured is a 2019 forest fire in Central Kalimantan.

MIT researchers map the energy transition’s effects on jobs

A new map shows which U.S. counties have the highest concentration of jobs that could be affected by the transition to renewable energy, based on new research by Christopher Knittel, the George P. Shultz Professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management, and Kailin Graham, of MIT’s Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research. Counties in blue are less potentially affected by the energy transition, and counties in red are more potentially affected.
