Histories: Singapore’s Climate in the Past, Present and Future

Earth Sciences seminar series: The Australian monsoon and climate change: What can models tells us?

Graeme Pearman, (Melbourne University). Examining the limits to bio-energy and bio-sequestration

An insiders view of Nature journals

In this presentation the speaker will survey elements of sea level change, both at the large scale and within the coastal zone. Reasons for pushing forward with refined resolution global models in order to incorporate processes along the coast that allow for more meaningful and useful projections of sea level changes and their associated impacts will be also discussed.

Investigating the Response of the Totten Glacier to Past Climate Warming using Marine Sediment Cores.

Regular series of Gender equity seminars for women in STEM.

Quantification of the changes in Atlantic water mass flow across rapid climate changes of past 40Ky

Our climate system varies on a wide range of timescales, from seasons to several millions of years. A large part of this variability is internally generated as a result of instabilities of the coupled atmosphere-ocean-ice-carbon cycle system. Other modes of variability, such as glacial cycles, are caused by astronomical forcings with periods of 20, 40,... View Article

Weekly cycles in global fires and urban temperatures. Dr Nick Earl (Uni Melb)

In March, Melissa joined 79 women from 18 countries on the largest ever all women expedition to Antarctica. This seminar will cover the people, place and program that make up Homeward Bound.

From Data Fusion to FEWSION: Creating Integrated Models to Understand and Visualize the Food, Energy, Water Nexus Featuring A/Prof Richard Rushforth, School of Informatics, Computing and Cyber Systems Northern Arizona University Integrated food, energy, water (FEW) system models face numerous methodological and analytical challenges. Chief among these challenges are data quality, availability, comprehensiveness, and concordance.... View Article

Ocean circulation plays a key role in the Earth’s climate system because surface ocean currents transport heat and deep ocean water masses can sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Geochemical proxies measured on carbonate foraminifera picked from marine sediments have been widely utilized to reconstruct past ocean changes. However, it is difficult to use the... View Article
