氣候科學家拍攝性感掛曆 [幻燈片展示]

哥倫比亞大學展示“地球上最熱門的氣候科學,以及其背後的人物”

當您聽到“氣候模型”這個詞時,您可能會想到電腦。但哥倫比亞大學一些大膽的媒體工作人員有一個不同的設想:說服那裡的氣候科學家為2014年日曆做模特。令人驚訝的是,13 位研究人員決定為這個專案“獻身”——好吧,是他們的靈感,如果不是他們的身體的話。而且,是的,哥倫比亞大學稱之為“性感”掛曆。

在每一頁上,都有一位研究人員身著時尚服裝,疊加在與其工作相關的異國景觀之上。例如,圖法·丁庫(四月先生)身著西裝和帽子,坐在衣索比亞的草地上,他在那裡努力改進天氣和氣候預報,以期幫助農業和限制疾病。

簡短的描述解釋了每個人的研究,並且,以一種書呆子的方式,許多月份都包含被拍攝者的“最喜歡的圖表”:無論是大規模物種滅絕、降雨趨勢、厄爾尼諾的未來……。

這些性感掛曆的男士和女士來自哥倫比亞大學的國際氣候與社會研究所和拉蒙特-多赫蒂地球觀測站。所有 13 位都可以在隨附的幻燈片展示中看到,標題是從他們的描述中濃縮而來的。為日曆收尾的是艾 Allegra LeGrande,她站在格陵蘭冰原的頂端,位於第 13 頁,即 2015 年 1 月。也許暗示著續集?
