AMS 2025 Annual Meeting

Towards a Thriving Planet: Charting the Course Across Scales

Society today is facing pressing global environmental change that is manifesting across spatial and temporal scales in complex ways in the coupled Earth System. Extreme weather events such as heat waves, floods, and wildfires are likely to exacerbate impacts on regional and local spatial scales. On longer timescales, communities are increasingly facing chronic stressors such as drought, ecosystem transformation, and sea level rise. Climate change is also taking a toll on human health and well-being. The annual cost of weather and climate disasters is on the rise; such events reduce property values, raise the costs of insurance, and pose national and global economic risks from supply chain disruptions to forced human migration.
