Catherine Gautier focuses her research in climate change science on the modeling and observation of cloud and aerosol effects on climate with an emphasis on absorbing aerosols (mineral and soot). She is also involved in educational aspects of climate change science and policy. Gautier has been a professor in the Geography Department at UC Santa Barbara since 1990, and directed the Institute for Computational Earth System Science from 1996 to 2002.
Jean-Louis Fellous joined the French space agency, CNES, in 1982 as program manager of the U.S.-French Topex/Poseidon oceanography satellite. He has headed the Earth Observation Programs at CNES since 1998 and was director for Ocean Research at Ifremer, the French ocean research institute, from 2001 until 2005. Fellous then worked with the European Space Agency as coordinator of Earth observation satellite programs related to climate, and was the Executive Officer of the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS). He is a co-president of the Joint Technical Commission on Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM). He now works as the Executive Director of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR).

Or, according to a student quoted on the website of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research: 'Climate tells you what clothes to buy, but weather tells you what clothes to wear. But now, as humans are increasingly affecting the climate with increased energy use, this distinction is being blurred - we expected one climate and may well be getting another that is outside our experience. We're buying clothes, or more broadly setting policies, that may not be appropriate for a globally warmed world. But exactly what will the climate be, and what specifically should we be doing about it? The problem is that some aspects of climate change are certain, and some aspects are uncertain.
