Taking action on climate change requires cross-media, transdisciplinary tools and an integrated systems-analysis modeling approach. Increased temperature, sea level rise, altered precipitation patterns, and changes in air and water quality are among the emerging climate change impacts facing our nation. The workshop on Integrated Modeling to Characterize Climate Change Impacts and Support Decision Making is rapidly approaching (February 1-2, 2011 in Atlanta, GA) and we encourage your participation! **Official Workshop Website **(Agenda, announcements, and up to date information): Registration is FREE and open to everyone! (Be sure to consider the Poster Session):
Integrated Modeling to Characterize Climate Change Impacts and Support Decision Making February 1 & 2, 2011 Atlanta, GA Would love to meet some of our Climate Interactive colleagues in person in Atlanta next month!Ĭlick on the picture above or the “Read the rest…” below to get the details. I (Drew Jones) will be giving a plenary talk on the lessons we’ve learned about how to ensure that models get used and facilitating some break-out groups.
We’re excited to be part of a very interesting EPA workshop in Atlanta next month organized by some dear colleagues (Mahri Monson, Mike Hiscock and team) - it’s a gathering of professionals dedicated to having models of climate impacts make a big difference in the ability of leaders to help society adapt well to climate change. The ventriculoarterial connection was concordant in four patients and discordant in one patient, while doubleoutlet ventricle was present in one patient and single outlet (pulmonary atresia) in another patient.CI's Drew Jones to Present at EPA Conference on Climate Impacts Modeling in Atlanta The atrioventricular connection was concordant in four patients and discordant in one patient, while double-inlet ventricle was present in two patients. The visceroatrial situs was solitus in all patients including levocardia in five and dextrocardia in two. Of the seven patients, three presented with cyanosis, three with murmur, and one with respiratory distress and heart failure. Age on admission ranged from one month to 13 years.
In this article, a total of seven patients with criss-cross morphology were identified from the hospital records and clinical characteristics of these patients and associated congenital cardiac diseases were discussed in the light of the literature data. Abstract A criss-cross heart is an extremely rare congenital cardiac anomaly characterized by crossing of the inflow streams of the two ventricles and almost always associated with other severe cardiac diseases.
