What’s a Three Minute Thesis Webinar? Borrowing from a format used by universities across the country, colleagues from across NOAA each have one slide and three minutes to share experiences and information about extreme heat. From studies of the past, current operations and initiatives, to innovative research - you will have the chance to hear straight from the experts on a wide array of water-related topics! In addition, presenters will address questions from the audience.
