Weather Data for Energy
Eagle Rock Analytics was selected to produce a curated high-resolution record of temperature and other weather variables to support California’s energy sector. A trend analysis revealed asymmetric warming in California, with major implications for the cost of electricity to ratepayers. This work was supported by the California Energy Commission through the EPIC Research Program.
Harmful Algal Blooms
Harmful algal blooms critically impact coastal regions and freshwater across the United States. We have developed statistical models that explain how changes in water temperature are leading to conditions favorable for algal growth. This work is in collaboration with Dr. Chris Gobler of Stony Brook University. Code publicly available: https://github.com/Eagle-Rock-Analytics/erie-microcystis
