Experts fear blow to climate research after sackings in US agency
Hindustan Times Lucknow
|March 02, 2025
The Trump administration has dismissed hundreds of researchers and meteorologists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a move scientists warned on Saturday will significantly impact climate forecasting and research in India.
NEW DELHI:
Experts emphasized that global cooperation on climate modeling and research is essential for forecasting severe weather events, with NOAA playing a strategic role in these efforts.
"Most of the global data, the models, and tools that we use are from NOAA. Around 50% of the ocean observations in the Indian Ocean are supported by NOAA," said Roxy Mathew Koll, Climate Scientist at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) author.
The dismissals come at a critical time for US-India climate cooperation. Last July, NOAA announced that a 12-year collaboration between its Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory and the Indian ministry of earth sciences had culminated in the renewal of technical cooperation in tracking tropical cyclones and their prediction in Indian seas.
