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 […]
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 […]
