Recent archaeological records no longer support a simple dichotomous characterization of the cultures/behaviors of Neanderthals and modern humans, but indicate much cultural/behavioral variability over time and space. Thus, in modeling […]
Single model initial-condition large ensembles (SMILEs) are a powerful tool for separating internal climate variability and forced climate change. SMILEs consist of individual climate models that have been run many […]
In this talk, I will present methods for extracting meaningful insights from both static and time-series data. For static data, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a widely used technique for […]
There is an ongoing discussion concerning the relationship between social welfare and climate change, and thus the required level and type of measures needed to protect the climate. Integrated assessment […]
Characterizing past hydroclimate variability in the tropics is key to improving future projections of water availability in these densely populated regions. Synchronicity between global ice volume and tropical glaciation over […]
Abstract: Speleothems are robust hydroclimate archives, but most proxies are qualitative (eg, “wetter” or “drier”), limiting their effectiveness for quantitative comparisons with climate models. Here, I use δ⁴⁴Ca and Mg/Ca—emerging […]
We cordially invite you to attend an open symposium hosted by the IBS Center for Climate Physics (Director: Axel TIMMERMANN) on its major achievements for the past eight years since commencement. […]
Forecasting Earth system processes on interannual to decadal timescales presents both significant challenges and critical opportunities, with implications extending beyond climate dynamics to societal impacts. This seminar explores foundational concepts […]
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)/Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) Earth System Model (ESM)’s land component is designed to capture coupled water, energy, carbon, and/or nutrient dynamics within vegetation, soils, […]
This seminar presents an investigation of the latitudinal distribution of precipitation, focusing on its relationship to large-scale atmospheric dynamics, in particular the vertical motion of the Transformed Eulerian Mean (TEM). […]
