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 […]

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 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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

We investigate the relationship between convective available potential energy (CAPE), precipitation, the number and size of storms and overshooting tops, and lightning stroke density (f) over the Central America region. […]
