About the Speaker:
Dr. Bond, Washington State Climatologist and University of Washington Professor of Atmospheric Sciences, has an abiding interest (or obsession) with the weather and climate of the North Pacific and Western North America. Along with his extensive study of our state, he has researched the effects of coastal terrain on storms, the behavior of Pacific cyclones, the atmospheric response to declining sea ice in Alaska, and effects of climate variations on marine ecosystems.
