Join the 3rd webinar of the WCRP Explaining and Predicting Earth System Change Lighthouse Activity

30 January 2023

EPESC Webinar series

The WCRP Explaining and Predicting Earth System Change Lighthouse Activity invites you to join the third webinar of the series that will provide a discussion forum on topics focused on predicting and explaining a range of different climate phenomena and events, while supporting the further development of a scientific agenda. This third webinar will focus on global and regional changes in drought and aspects related to a changing climate.

SPEAKERS: 

  • Aiguo Dai (University at Albany, USA): Drought Under Global Warming
  • Alessandra Giannini (Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique/IPSL, France; and IRI, USA): Attribution of climate change: the case of late 20th century Sahel drought
  • Juan Rivera (CCT Mendoza, CONICET, Argentina): Mechanisms behind the recent unprecedented drying along the Central Andes of Argentina

The event will take place on 15th February 2023, from 15:00hs to 16:30hs UTC.

Registrations are free and can be done via https://EPESC-webinar-series-drought.eventbrite.co.uk

Call for Proposals for International Teams in Space and Earth Sciences

25 January 2023

The International Space Science Institute (ISSI) in Bern and ISSI in Beijing (ISSI-BJ) invite scientists to submit proposals for International Team projects. International Teams are small groups of scientists involved in space science research, working together on data analysis, theory, and models. Please click the link above to find out more. Proposals must be submitted by 16 March 2023.

Webinar Climate Tipping Points: How to tip society, not the planet

24 January 2023

Upcoming discussion on Climate Tipping Points: how to tip society, not the planet, taking place on 26 January 2023, 15:00 - 16:30 CET. AIMES, the Earth Commission, Future Earth, and the WCRP Safe Landing Climates Lighthouse Activity organizes a webinar on social tipping points as part of a series that aims to advance the knowledge about tipping points, irreversibility, and abrupt changes in the Earth system. It supports efforts to increase consistency in treatment of tipping elements in the scientific community, develop a research agenda, and design joint experiments and ideas for a Tipping Element Model Intercomparison Project (TipMip).

Open Call for Membership of the CliC Scientific Steering Group

23 January 2023

Stratosphere-troposphere Processes And their Role in Climate

The WCRP Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) Core project is launching an open call for nominations to its Scientific Steering Group (SSG). We seek nominations (including self-nominations) from scientists active in cryosphere-related research, both in the natural and social sciences, including those studying the interaction of ecosystems, fisheries and communities with the one or more cryosphere components.  

  • To apply, fill in the on-line form not later than 31 March 2023
  • Read the call text here

Please direct inquiries about the call and selection process to CliC co-chairs Amy Lovecraft (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and Edward Hanna (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)

Open call for ESMO Scientific Steering Group membership

17 January 2023

The WCRP Earth System Modelling and Observations (ESMO) Core Project coordinates, advances, and facilitates all modelling, data assimilation and observational activities within WCRP, working jointly with all other WCRP projects and providing strategic connections to related external programs. It follows a seamless and value chain approach across all Earth system components, disciplines, and scales. The modelling and observational activities under ESMO are central to the provision of science-based climate information to support adaptation planning and decision-making, local and regional climate impact assessments, and national and international mitigation and adaptation policies. ESMO was officially launched by the WCRP Joint Scientific Committee in November 2020.

This call invites the community to nominate candidates (including self-nomination) to become members of the ESMO Scientific Steering Group (SSG).

If you are interested in joining the SSG, please submit your application via the online form by 10 March 2023.

Please direct inquiries about the nomination and selection process to Nico Caltabiano (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) at the WCRP Secretariat.
