Predictions of changes of the land monsoon rainfall (LMR) in the coming decades are of vital importance for successful sustainable economic development. Current dynamic models, though, have shown little skill […]

Oxygen (O2) is critical to life at sea. Its distribution in the ocean’s interior reflects a subtle balance between physical (e.g. air-sea flux and transport) and biogeochemical (e.g. consumption at […]

Major parts of the continental periphery of the Arctic Ocean is comprised of terrestrial permafrost. Empirical data as well as modeling experiments show that the stability of this particular cryosphere […]

Most global circulation models reproduce density fields reasonably well, but show poor performance in ocean circulation fields. It indicates that the numerical models do not represent dynamics of the ageostrophic […]

Tropical oceans offer an interesting contrast in their zonal and meridional dynamics and thermodynamics with interacting coupled climate modes. Much progress has been made in the dominant ENSO signal in […]

Human activity impacts both sources of pollutants, as well as the chemical and physical processes determining the pathways from sources to societal impacts. In this talk, I will focus on […]

A multi-model analysis of the resolution influence on precipitation climatology in the Gulf Stream region Using climate simulations from coupled and uncoupled general circulation models, this study investigates the influence […]

The Arctic: A greenhouse gas hotspot? Dr. Martin Heimann, Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry Vast amounts of organic carbon are stored in Arctic permafrost soils and in the seabed of the Arctic […]

Rapid Evolutionary Responses to Radical Habitat Change Prof. Carol Eunmi Lee, University of Wisconsin How can we assess whether populations have the potential to evolve in response to catastrophic environmental […]
