Welcome to the official webpage of the Climate Extremes Modeling (CEM) Group at Stony Brook University! Located in the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences, the CEM group focuses on investigating how extreme events, such a tropical cyclones, may be altered in a changing climate. This includes understanding the capability of current and next-generation climate models to simulate extreme weather events. The group also develops simplified, reduced complexity modeling frameworks to study extremes in a global context.

Hurricane Laura – Preliminary Climate Change Attribution Statement
Hurricane Laura made landfall in the early morning on August 27 causing extensive damage along the U.S. Gulf Coast. Preliminary work by the Climate Extremes Modeling Group at Stony Brook University, led by Dr. Kevin A. Reed, indicates that human-induced climate change...
