Scale interactions in the tropical Pacific Ocean
We examine the way various temporal and spatial scales of motion interact to impact the evolving ocean/atmosphere system in the tropical Pacific. A major focus is the link between wind […]

Korea’s operational NWP model (KIM) – performance and future plan
Korean Integrated Model (KIM) has been an operational global model at Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) since government funded 9-year project of developing a next generation global model. The main components […]
Stormier Southern Hemisphere induced by topography and ocean circulation
Storms and extreme weather events are stronger in the Southern Hemisphere than in the Northern Hemisphere. In this talk I will combine an energetic perspective, observations and climate model simulations […]
Marine viruses and their impact in a turbulent ocean
Viruses attack marine organisms from bacteria to whales. In particular phytoplankton blooms can crash because of viral infection. Here we will explore the interaction between viruses, phytoplankton and zooplankton under […]
Exploring drivers of Late Pleistocene hominin dispersals and extinctions using agent-based modeling and machine learning approach
Toward the end of the Pleistocene, archaic humans in Eurasia such as the Neanderthals and Denisovans were completely replaced by anatomically modern humans dispersing from Africa. Understanding the causes of […]
The Impact of Climate Change on Ocean Submesoscale Activity
The physical structure of the upper ocean is an important control on ocean-atmosphere exchange of momentum, heat, freshwater, and gases such as carbon dioxide. It also regulates the distribution of […]
Storyline simulations of extreme events using spectral nudging
In this talk, we present results from spectral nudging experiments with a coupled climate model. These experiments aim to address the question how recent extreme events would unfold in +2K […]
The scaling of shear generated turbulence
Turbulence generated by sheared motions can have a large impact on the mixing of properties in both the ocean and atmosphere. There is a need to elucidate the factors controlling […]
Marine heatwaves and ocean biogeochemical extremes: Key processes, changes and impacts
Extreme events, i.e., the normally rare occurrences when a system is far outside its norm, severely impact organisms and ecosystem on land. Yet, in comparison, our understanding of such extreme […]
An Earth-System perspective on the future of global marine fisheries
The global wild marine fish harvest increased fourfold between 1950 and its current peak, reflecting interactions between human and ecological drivers. This talk will examine these interactions in an Earth […]
