UW–Madison Extension is partnering with the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies and its Center for Climatic Research (CCR) as well as the College of Letters and Science’s Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences (AOS) by providing funding to support the Wisconsin State Climatology Office (SCO) into the future. Specifically, the Division of Extension will provide long-term, full-time funding support for the Wisconsin State Climatologist, thereby making it an Extension position. The investment by Extension will build upon the existing CCR and AOS investments, and the expanded partnership by Extension, CCR, and AOS will support the SCO’s ability to continue to provide research, data, outreach, and solutions to communities across Wisconsin into the future.
