Professor Rick Keller handles the heat!

Posted on August 29, 2012

August 2012


Read about Professor Rick Keller’s research on the 2003 heat wave that gripped Europe and Paris in particular. Two recent news articles tell the whole story: “Forget blizzards and hurricanes, heat waves are deadliest” (UW-Madison News) and “Seely on Science: Heat waves more deadly than hurricanes, floods” (Wisconsin State Journal).
