Since retiring, Kaper has investigated the mathematics of climate change, and directs the NSF-funded Mathematics and Climate Research Network.〔 With Hans Engler of Georgetown, he is a co-author of the book ''Mathematics and Climate'' (SIAM, 2013),〔.〕〔.〕〔Review of ''Mathematics and Climate'' by John Adam, 〕〔(Review of ''Mathematics and Climate'' ) by William J. Satzer (December 2013), MAA Reviews, Mathematical Association of America.〕 which won the 2013 ASLI Choice Award of the Atmospheric Science Librarians International.〔(New textbook wins 2013 Choice Award ), Argonne National Laboratory, March 11, 2014, retrieved 2015-02-08.〕 In 2009, Kaper and his son Tasso J.
