I am an atmospheric scientist whose research focuses on developing and applying high-resolution climate projections to evaluate the impacts of climate change on human society and the natural environment. I’ve worked with cities, states, non-profits and federal agencies to bridge the gap between climate science and on-the-ground planning, and served as lead author on the Second, Third, and Fourth and an author on the Fifth U.S. National Climate Assessment.

Katharine’s areas of expertise include science communication, greenhouse gas emissions, and developing and applying high-resolution climate projections for assessing regional to local-scale impacts of climate change on human systems and the natural environment. She holds a B.Sc. in Physics from the University of Toronto and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Atmospheric Science from the University of Illinois and has received numerous awards and recognitions for her work, including four honorary doctorates and being named a United Nations Champion of the Earth.
