Society is increasingly affected by climate impacts, from prolonged water shortages to damaging coastal floods and wildfires. Scientists studying climate variations are eager to have their knowledge used in adaptive decision making. To achieve this, science and society must engage productively around complex management and policy challenges. For over 20 years, the science-society interface has been fertile ground for the Regional Integrated Sciences and Assessments (RISA) programs sponsored by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.    Climate in Context describes what it takes to help scientists and stakeholders work together to “co-produce” climate science knowledge, policy, and action. This state-of-the art synthesis reflects on lessons learned by RISA programs, and provides a sober assessment of the challenges ahead. Through case studies from various US regions, this book provides lessons and guidance for organizations and individuals who want to work at the science-society interface on a range of climate challenges.

This book provides concrete guidance for organizations and individuals who want to develop research projects, initiatives, interdisciplinary research teams, and programs at the science-society interface. It will be an invaluable source for a wide range researchers and professionals who need a state-of-the-art synthesis of practices to foster the co-production of climate science knowledge, policy, and action. Moreover, it provides a well articulated framework and examples useful to the development of cutting-edge training programs and courses on the art and practice of science-society engagement, partnership, and research collaboration.

"Cimate in Context" offers the reader a clearly structured conceptual framework for designing interdisciplinary use-inspired science, illustrative examples from multiple sectors and places including environmental justice communities, and best practices for adapting science to meet societal challenges in the 21st century. The authors move beyond case studies to provide peer-reviewed, qualitative and quantitative evaluation of these research projects. The last, and easily one of the most important, distinguishing characteristics is that this book is written in a manner accessible and usable to both academic communities and decision makers.
