The Maroon Bells, Colorado still retain a light dusting of snow above the green vegetation at lower elevations. As climate patterns change, the amount of snow in the Roaring Fork Valley and how late into summer it lasts may also change. Credit: Emily Jack-Scott
Christopher Clack, at AGCI's Getting Near Zero workshop, explores how we can use grids to fill reliability gaps of integrated wind-solar electricity.
Bri-Mathias Hodge, at AGCI's 2016 Getting Near Zero workshop, explores the potential of offshore and high altitude wind power.
Per Peterson, at AGCI's 2016 Getting Near Zero workshop, explores how nuclear power can potentially balance loads of intermittent wind-solar electricity.
AGCI has become an intellectual proving ground, a ferment for new ideas and concepts, and a place where the different disciplines actually talk, and progress. Hal Harvey
AGCI has been the most prominent place for developing interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary dialogues between scientists and practitioners.Guy Brasseur
