EPA Science Matters: Meet EPA Scientist Chris Weaver Investing in Climate Science EPA scientist Dr. Chris Weaver’s research focuses on climate change science, especially evaluating the specific risks global change poses to air quality, water quality, human health, and ecosystems. His work has included modeling how cloud cover effects climate change, looking at the dynamics of climate change and the terrestrial water cycle, the impacts of land-use and land cover change on weather and climate, and the implications of uncertainty for assessing the potential impacts of global change. Dr. Weaver is currently on assignment to the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP), where he leads the coordination and integration of scientific research to support the implementation of “The National Global Change Research Plan: 2012-2021”, for which he served as one of the lead authors. He spends most of his free time getting out and about with his wife, Sarah, and young son, Henry. Occasionally, he has time to pursue his hobby of playing, performing, and recording music.
