Spontaneous convective aggregation in the tropics – Is it important and is it real?
KST 16:00 – 17:00 | Join us online click here
This talk will present the concept of convective aggregation on the mesoscale in idealized cloud resolving models, in highly simplified stochastic models and in the latest observations in the tropical […]

Tracer Age
KST 14:00 – 15:00 | Join us online click here
Tracers that have a time history of input can be used to provide information on when the water or air was last at the surface. Mixing complicates the issue. We […]

Progress of ERA5, and its use in studies of atmospheric trends and variability
KST 16:00 – 17:00 | Join us online click here
ERA5 is ECMWF’s latest comprehensive reanalysis of meteorological and related observations made over multiple decades. It has been released in final form covering 1979 onwards, with an improved (ERA5.1) version […]

Transit Time Distributions
KST 14:00 – 15:00 | Join us online click here
I will introduce the concept of transit time distributions and how they can be used to consider what influences the properties of water and air at a particular location and […]

Lagrangian Coherent Structures – continued
KST 14:00 – 15:00 | Join us online click here
We will continue to discuss Lagrangian Coherent Structures, in particular focusing on the impact of hyperbolic points, the braking of transport barriers, and the dispersion of larvae around Hawaii.

Lagrangian Coherent Structures
KST 14:00 – 15:00 | Join us online click here
Topics covered include: Eulerian versus Lagrangian approaches, particle trajectories and phase space, material surfaces and invarient manifolds, stable and unstable manifolds and their detection.

Properties of turbulence
KST 14:00 – 15:00 | Join us online click here
We will consider some basic properties of turbulent flows. Topics covered include: The Kolmogorov and Batchelor scales, flow instabilities, the turbulent kinetic energy equation, inferring turbulent diffusivity from measurements of […]

Can state-dependent effects of natural forcing resolve mismatches of simulated and reconstructed climate variability?
KST 16:00 – 17:00 | Join us online click here
Temperature variability at the last Glacial Maximum was higher than during the Holocene. Can we extrapolate from this to a state-dependency of Earth surface temperature variability? Another explanation could be […]
