Zumberge Hall of Science, commonly known as ZHS, is one of the original buildings of the University of Southern California's University Park Campus, completed in 1928.

In astronomy, the zenithal hourly rate (ZHR) of a meteor shower is the number of meteors a single observer would see in an hour of peak activity if it was at the zenith, assumed the conditions are excellent (stars visible up to magnitude 6,5). The rate that can effectively be seen is nearly always lower and decreases the closer the radiant is to the horizon.

The formula to calculate the ZHR is:

Z H R = H R ¯ ⋅ F ⋅ r 6.5 − l m sin ⁡ ( h R ) {\displaystyle ZHR={\cfrac {{\overline {HR}}\cdot F\cdot r^{6.5-lm}}{\sin(h_{R})}}}

where

H R ¯ = N T e f f {\displaystyle {\overline {HR}}={\cfrac {N}{T_{eff}}}}

represents the hourly rate of the observer. N is the number of meteors observed, and Teff is the effective observation time of the observer.

Example: If the observer detected 12 meteors in 15 minutes, their hourly rate was 48. (12 divided by 0.25 hours).

The United States Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) coordinates and integrates federal research on changes in the global environment and their implications for society. The program began as a presidential initiative in 1989 and was codified by Congress through the Global Change Research Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-606), which called for "a comprehensive and integrated United States research program which will assist the Nation and the world to understand, assess, predict, and respond to human-induced and natural processes of global change."

Thirteen departments and agencies participate in the USGCRP, which was known as the U.S. Climate Change Science Program from 2002 through 2008. The program is steered by the Subcommittee on Global Change Research under the Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Sustainability, overseen by the Executive Office of the President, and facilitated by a National Coordination Office.

Since its inception, the USGCRP has supported research and observational activities in collaboration with several other national and international science programs.

These activities led to major advances in several key areas including:

These advances have been documented in numerous assessments commissioned by the program and have played prominent roles in international assessments such as those of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Program results and plans are documented in the program's annual report, Our Changing Planet.
