The talk “Primary Dispersal of Humans, Climate Change, and Megamammal Extinctions in the Americas at the End of the Pleistocene” will address what could be considered the first event of the Anthropocene: the widespread extinction […]
In the first part of the talk, I’ll give an overview of the current knowledge of tropical cyclones (TCs) trends. I’ll discuss recent trends of TC frequency in the last […]

In the age of AI, information is abundant, but new perspectives remain rare. Based on a journey from designer to artist, this seminar explores an artistic way of seeing that […]
Deforestation in the Amazon has been predicted to cause irreversible forest dieback, primarily due to significant reductions in mean precipitation driven by decreased evapotranspiration. However, these results are based on […]
Since the end of the last ice age around 11.000 years ago, the isostatic sea level is rising due to warming climate and melting of the glaciers. Stone-Age hunter-gatherer groups, […]
The rapid decline of polar sea ice under accelerating global warming is increasingly recognized as a key factor influencing albedo feedback and large-scale ocean circulation. In particular, recent sea ice […]
In this presentation, I will discuss some of the work I have been doing to reconstruct the history of the last glacial cycle (120-6 kyr BP). First, I will introduce […]
This talk presents a new statistical framework for evaluating climate models that captures three key features of climate time series: multivariate dependence, temporal correlation, and the response to external forcings. […]
