Understanding the global cycling of the atmosphere remains a profound challenge in science. The results have implications in many fields, most notably meteorology. This radio broadcast features an interview with Dr. Patrick Chung of UC Santa Cruz introducing current research in atmospheric science and global warming. Chung discusses the occurrence of El Nino; the effect of topography on global warming models; the effect of greenhouse gases on Earth temperatures; and the role of climate feedback mechanisms and amplification processes in determining climate system sensitivity and reactions to change. The interview with Chung begins at 11 minutes and 56 seconds into the audio file; the interview is 14 minutes and 50 seconds in length.
