Seminar: The next revolution in numerical environment and weather prediction

Gab Abramowitz: Philosophy of climate modelling

Gab Abramowitz will be delivering his postponed winter school lecture, Philosophy of climate modelling, during the usual CMS training slot. Although this lecture is particularly targeted at winter school participants, all are welcome to attend. We will be dialling in from the following rooms: ANU: Hales room UNSW: Seminar room UMelb: Meeting Room 409 Monash:... View Article

Alexandra Auderset – Gulf Stream intensification after the early Pliocene shoaling of the Central American Seaway

Ringwood Room Jaegar 4, Research School of Earth Sciences,Mills Rd, Acton, ACT, Australia

Alexandra Auderset (Max Planck Institute). Gulf Stream intensification after the early Pliocene shoaling of the Central American Seaway The shoaling of the Central American Seaway (CAS) around 4.6 Ma (million years ago) is thought to have enhanced the Gulf Stream, strengthening the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and potentially influencing the evolution of Pliocene climate. Paleoclimate records... View Article

Stefan Rahmstorf – Evidence for a weakening Atlantic Ocean overturning circulation

Climate Change Research Centre (CCRC) 4th Floor, Matthews Building, UNSW, Kensington, NSW, Australia

Possible changes in Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), sometimes referred to as the Gulf Stream System, provide a key source of uncertainty regarding future climate change. Maps of temperature trends over the twentieth century show a conspicuous region of cooling in the northern Atlantic, as well as excessive warming along the North American coast. Both... View Article

Julio Soria – Some unique experiments using particle image velocimetry of high Reynolds number wall-bounded flows

Hales Seminar Room Jaeger 7, 142 Mills road, RSES, Acton, ACT, Australia

Some unique experiments using particle image velocimetry of high Reynolds number wall-bounded flows - Julio Soria (Monash University) Over the last 30 years flow visualisation has evolved from qualitative to quantitative and in many circumstances is replacing more traditional flow measurement techniques. In concert over a much longer period has been the investigation of turbulent... View Article
