Welcome to Eye Towards the Sky
Here you will find a series of short papers, written by Anita Gajdecki, of the American Meteorological Society that summarize the science behind a variety of topics related to climate change. These articles are aimed at readers with a general interest in meteorology but who do not have specialized training in the area.
Also, you may find Anita's published letter here in response to an article by the London Mayor Boris Johnson.
