We were in Washington, D.C., last week for our bi-annual in-person team meeting. We had a very productive week of collaboration both within the team and with external partners. Huge thanks to everyone who attended and gave us feedback that will guide our work moving forward. We also took a little time to be tourists, as shown in the photo from the team's tour of the Pentagon! #water #watersecurity #environment #environmentalsecurity #climate #climateresilience

On the GWSC blog: Deputy Director Dr. Kate Brauman shares three key takeaways from US African Command's 2024 Security Implications of Climate Change conference: 1) There’s not a lot of climate change science in climate change conversations right now. 2) Climate change means we’re going to have to reimagine military support for disaster response, and a whole lot of other things. 3) Agricultural and economic impacts of climate change matter for security, too.

What do you know about data sonification? On the GWSC blog, Dr. Sambadi Majumder explores how the newer method of conveying meaning behind data can supplement and sometimes even replace more traditional methods like graphs and charts.

GWSC analysts Penelope Mitchell and Erin Menzies Pluer, PhD wrote for New Security Beat about our recent work on Panama – and how the Panama Canal's water situation is not as dire as some might think. #water #watersecurity #environment #panama #climate https://lnkd.in/eYBfYaD8

We caught sight of a familiar image at the 2024 ESRI User Conference's first plenary session! This map by GWSC GIS Program Manager Nicholas Roberge was part of our work on China. (Image has been edited to highlight GWSC's map.) #ESRIUC2024 #water #climate #gis #environment #watersecurity
