This tribute outlines some of the major contributions that Stephen H. Schneider made to climate change science and to communication about that science to help a broader audience understand it in an educated manner, and realize that urgent decisions are needed, even with incomplete information. We highlight some of the awards and honors that Dr. Schneider received, and quote from a few already published tributes. We cite some of his publications and provide further sources for readers to learn more about climate science and about Dr. Schneider.
Steve Schneider wrote over 450 articles and several books, some of which are listed below. Many of his publications can be found at http://stephenschneider.stanford.edu/References/References.html, and traced through some of the sources listed in the acknowledgments below.
