Past climate aberrations provide unique insight into climate-carbon cycle feedbacks in the Earth System on time scales extending far beyond the instrumental record. In this presentation, I will focus on […]
Abstract: Past glacial periods were characterized by pronounced millennial-scale climate variability, mainly associated with Dansgaard-Oeschger (DO) and Heinrich events, while climate during warm interglacial periods is much more stable. While […]
Dear climate enthusiasts, We invite you to join us on Thursday, June 26 2025 at 16:00 KST with speaker Dr. Sophie F. Warken from the Institute of Earth Sciences and Institute of Environmental Physics, Heidelberg University. This online speleothem lecture […]
Abstract: Over the past 25 years, speleothem-based paleoclimate research has achieved major advances in reconstructing Earth’s climate history across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales. As the field […]
Fire is the primary terrestrial ecosystem disturbance on a global scale and an important Earth system process. lt is regulated by climate and weather, vegetation characteristics, and human activities, and […]
Recent studies examining CMIP6 projections have indicated that equatorial Atlantic interannual variability (also known as the Atlantic zonal mode or AZM) will weaken under global warming. This has been associated […]
We invite you to join us on Friday, May 30 2025 at 16:00 KST with speaker Dr. Alena Kimbrough from the University of Wollongong. This online speleothem lecture series at the IBS Center for Climate Physics, Busan, South Korea […]
Heat and carbon are the currencies of regional and global climate, constantly exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere. This exchange is strongly influenced by fine-scales ocean eddies—whirls—that flux heat […]
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is an important part of the global ocean circulation and is responsible for a large energy transport towards the mid and high northern latitudes. […]
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 […]
