Mechanisms of Atlantic Multidecadal Variability Intiated by Ocean Thermohaline Dynamics
Seminar by Dr. Who Myung Kim from Climate and Global Dynamics Laboratory, National Center for Atmospheric Science
15:30 — 16:30 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV) of sea surface temperature (SST) is a key source of climate variability in surrounding regions. Low frequency Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) variability is often invoked […]

Noble gas analysis in conventional and unconventional aquatic environments - a plea for simplicity
Seminar by Prof. Rolf Kipfer from Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (Eawag)
10:00 — 11:00 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Atmospheric noble gases enter aquatic systems by gas / water partitioning. Therefore, aquatic noble gas concentrations in waters reflect the physical conditions prevailing during gas exchange. Consequently, applications of dissolved […]

Phase locking, predictability barrier, and coupling in tropical climate
Seminar by Dr. Woosok Moon from Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics
14:00 — 15:00 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Earth’s orbit and axial tilt imprint a strong seasonal cycle on climatological data. Climate variability is typically viewed in terms of fluctuations in the seasonal cycle induced by higher frequency […]

Natural Variability in a Changing Ocean: Emergence and Impacts
Seminar by Ms. Sarah Schlunegger from Princeton University
10:00 — 11:00 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Anthropogenically-forced changes in the ocean are underway and critical for the ocean’s role as a carbon sink and marine habitat. Detecting such changes will require quantification of not only the […]

Part 1) Trends and Teleconnections among South and East Asian Monsoons: A Review, Part 2) Monsoon Variability over South and East Asia : Role of Southern Annular Mode
Seminar by Dr. Ramesh Hiranand Kripalani from Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology
13:00 — 15:00 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Part 1) The connections between South and East Asian Summer Monsoons have been a topic of research since decades. Several studies by the Chinese and the Indian scientists have documented […]

Multi-Decadal Variability in the Indian Summer Monsoon Rainfall: Evidences through Proxy Sources
Seminar by Dr. Ramesh Hiranand Kripalani from Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology
10:00 — 11:00 | 1010 (Jasmin) - Intergrated mechanical engineering building
Based on the analysis of the observed Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) for the period 1871-2000, a 60-year cycle appeared to be evident. However, the decreasing trend in the ISMR […]

Impacts of Urbanization on Climate Change in Asian Cities
Seminar by Prof. Johnny Chan from City University of Hong Kong
15:30 — 16:30 | Room 3F - Building of Construction
During the last 20-30 years, because of rapid economic growth, extensive areas of agricultural and rural land in many countries in Asia have been transformed into cities. Such changes have […]
