Heavy rainfall over the Indian Ocean, Southeast Asia, and the eastern Pacific Ocean predicts 100°F (38°C) temperatures in California's Central Valley within 4 to 16 days. This finding comes from a collaborative research team at UC Davis and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Climate Center in Busan, South Korea.

Researchers, including UC Davis professor Richard Grotjahn, linked these heat waves to the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), a large, traveling atmospheric circulation pattern. For more information, visit: UCTV.

A global shift to driverless vehicles could dramatically reduce traffic congestion and climate-altering emissions by 50% or more by 2050, creating a "dream scenario."

Dan Sperling, Director of the Institute of Transportation Studies at UC Davis, discusses this future alongside Emily Castor Warren, Senior Director of Transportation Policy at Lyft, and Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg. This discussion is part of the "UC Davis Fillers" series. For more, visit UCTV.

Skyelark Ranch, owned and operated by UC Davis graduate Alexis Robertson and her husband Gillies, utilizes rotational sheep grazing. This practice significantly benefits plant growth, drought resistance, and the climate.

The grazing encourages plant growth, which captures atmospheric carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. This carbon is then stored in the soil, promoting healthier ecosystems and reducing atmospheric CO2 levels.
