The book is an interdisciplinary initiative of statisticians, climatologists, ecologists and oceanographers whose research addresses development and implementation of analytical methodology for assessing climate change impacts. The team includes statisticians V. Lyubchich and Y. R. Gel (statistical and machine learning methods for quantification of the climate-induced risk), climatologist K. H. Kilbourne (paleoclimatology, geochemistry, assessment of the causes of climate variability), fisheries scientist T. J. Miller (effects of ocean acidification on blue crab, recruitment issues in menhaden and striped bass), disaster expert A. B. Smith (analysis of economic and societal impacts of extreme events and natural hazards), and research scientist in food-water-energy nexus N. K. Newlands (sustainability, precision agriculture and risk analysis using machine learning and integrated modeling).
