From margret.steinthorsdottir at geo.su.se Mon Jun 4 11:23:55 2018 From: margret.steinthorsdottir at geo.su.se (Margret Steinthorsdottir) Date: Mon, 4 Jun 2018 09:23:55 +0000 Subject: [Bolincentret-at-su.se] Bolin Centre workshop on Miocene climate, June 7-8 Message-ID: <97F9155C-39E7-43C5-A2DC-FE8D64CD954A@geo.su.se> Dear all, Thursday and Friday this week (7-8 June) RA6 and RA1 are co-hosting a workshop on Miocene climate, focusing on the mid-Miocene warm period and surrounding transitions. This fascinating interval of climate extremes and reversals has been the focus of much research but there is to date no clear picture of what happened to climate and biota globally, how ocean circulation changed, and what forcings were involved. During the workshop we aim to make progress on this problem by bringing together deep-time paleoclimate modellers and proxy analysts who are interested in this topic. We have a stellar set of experts attending, as well as local researchers who are engaged in relevant research. The expertise range from atmosphere, ocean and ice-sheet modellers to terrestrial and oceanographic paleoclimatologists. It is therefore a unique chance to make progress on understanding this fascinating climate transition. The workshop schedule attached and note that the first day of the workshop will be located in Nordenskiöldsalen and the second day in Högbomsalen, both in Geohuset (hus U, 3rd level). Everyone is welcome to attend the workshop, however, lunches and the workshop dinner is only provided for those who signed up via doodle link in April. We hope to see many of you there.

The seminar held by Evelien Dekker is today at 11:00. Name Evelien Dekker PhD student at MISU Title Sea ice: real world versus model world Abstract Sea ice plays an important role in the climate system because of its high albedo. Furthermore, it blocks transfer of heat, momentum and moisture between the ocean and the atmosphere. Sea ice retreat induces several feedback mechanisms that contribute to the climate sensitivity. Even though sea ice plays such a crucial role, it is still poorly represented in models and the current Arctic sea ice trend is not captured by the CMIP5 ensemble. In my first review seminar I will give an introduction in the physics of sea ice and its model representation. I will give a short introduction about sea ice in general and the main differences between in the Arctic and the Antarctic. I will show some results from the SHEBA (Surface heat and energy budget of the Arctic) field campaign in 1998 to give an idea of the observed seasonal cycle in surface fluxes and albedo changes that a sea ice model needs to deal with. The main part considers the building blocks of a sea ice model, going through Stephan 1891, Maykut and Untersteiner 1971, Thorndike 1975 and CICE/LIM, the most used sea ice models in fully coupled climate models. This will illustrate what the simple model is able to capture and what the added value of more sophisticated models is. After attending the seminar you have learned more about sea ice physics, the current status of sea ice models and overview of the future challenges in sea ice modeling.
