Facilitators to the Geoscience and Society Summit March 18-21 Would you like to participate as a facilitator and get a complimentary registration at the Geoscience and Society Summit (https://connect.agu.org/gss/home) ? The summit aims to create a highly interactive forum for effective cooperation between scientists and users of scientific information to tackle global and local challenges around sustainability of natural resources and systems, global health and resilience. Facilitators needs to have some experience leading open discussions and direct up to 20-30 people, making sure that as many voices as possible are heard within a relatively limited timeframe, and that the desired goals of the discussion are met (in terms of questions asked and conclusions reached, for which there will be guidelines). Interested? Please contact bolin at su.se (mailto:bolin at su.se) . Time and place: March 18-21, Geoscience building, Stockholm University Ancient wetlands provide new insight into global carbon cycle Scientists have unearthed and pieced together evidence (https://www.natgeo.su.se/english/research/resarch-news/ancient-wetlands-provide-new-insight-into-global-carbon-cycle-1.428196) on more than 1,000 ancient wetland sites from across the globe, that are presently covered by fields, forests and lakes. Although vanished from the Earth’s surface, these buried sites could explain some of the differences between global carbon cycle models and real-life observations. Contact Britta Sannel (mailto:britta.sannel at natgeo.su.se) , Bolin Centre scientist and Senior Lecturer at Department of Physical Geograph for more info. Ten reasons for preserving grasslands It is well known that natural and semi-natural grasslands are important for biodiversity (https://www.natgeo.su.se/english/research/resarch-news/ten-reasons-for-preserving-grasslands-1.427723) . But such grasslands also provide us with many other benefits. Grasslands are important for the climate, for agriculture, for water in the landscape, and have large cultural values. Think about the Swedish midsummer traditions with maypoles in pastures, for example.

Abstract The Arctic experiences dramatic changes due to climate warming. The underlying processes of the observed changes are not fully understood, yet they propagate through the entire global climate system with impacts on weather, ecosystems and geopolitics. Aerosol particles and clouds play a major role in that system and are among the main contributors to the overall uncertainties. At the Department of Environmental Science and Analytical Chemistry at Stockholm University we are using various in-situ techniques to study the properties of aerosols and clouds. In particular, we are using a counterflow virtual impactor inlet which is able to separate activated from non-activated particles and thus allows to study the microphysical and chemical properties of cloud condensation nuclei in high detail. In my talk, I will present results from our observations at Zeppelin observatory on Spitsbergen as well as recent results from the ‘Arctic Ocean 2018’ expedition to the high Arctic on board the Swedish icebreaker Oden.

Can´t join IRL? Please click the link to join the webinar: https://stockholmuniversity.zoom.us/j/543746292 Abstract The Arctic experiences dramatic changes due to climate warming. The underlying processes of the observed changes are not fully understood, yet they propagate through the entire global climate system with impacts on weather, ecosystems and geopolitics. Aerosol particles and clouds play a major role in that system and are among the main contributors to the overall uncertainties. At the Department of Environmental Science and Analytical Chemistry at Stockholm University we are using various in-situ techniques to study the properties of aerosols and clouds. In particular, we are using a counterflow virtual impactor inlet which is able to separate activated from non-activated particles and thus allows to study the microphysical and chemical properties of cloud condensation nuclei in high detail. In my talk, I will present results from our observations at Zeppelin observatory on Spitsbergen as well as recent results from the ‘Arctic Ocean 2018’ expedition to the high Arctic on board the Swedish icebreaker Oden.

Welcome! Message-ID: Bolin Centre Seminar Series | Research Area 3 Hosted by: Research Area 3 Speaker Lan Wang Erlandsson, Stockholm Resilience, Stockholm University Title Terrestrial moisture recycling: a land-atmosphere process with governance appeal When & where TODAY at 13h00-14h00 in Ahlmannsalen, Geoscience Building Fika will be served after the seminar. Can't join? Follow it live on the Bolin Centre YouTube-channel. Abstract A large portion of evaporation, interception and transpiration from land comes down again as precipitation over land. This atmospheric part of the water cycle referred to as terrestrial moisture recycling is, thus, a land-atmosphere interaction process that allows land management decisions to influence precipitation, with further knock-on implications for downwind land and water resources. For example, deforestation - through reduced rainfall - may result in drought-related self-amplified forest loss, changes in river flows, and crop failure. These insights have piqued the interests from researchers and practitioners working with resource management and governance: should the moisture from forest be considered an ecosystem service? Should the moisture transfer between countries be regulated and governed? In the latest UN Water report, moisture recycling was also labelled a natural-based solution. At the same time, it is clear that the complex links between land-use change and rainfall go beyond moisture recycling. This lecture aims to give a brief overview of the branch of moisture recycling research that crossed over from the climate and hydrology science communities, to appeal to social science disciplines. I also view this lecture as an opportunity for a broader conversation on the challenges and dilemmas of translating biophysical insights to useful tools in management and governance. Bolin Centre Guest Seminar Speaker Joshua P. Schimel, Professor, University of California, Santa Barbara Title Writing Science When & where TODAY at 14h30-15h30 in Ahlmannsalen, Geoscience Building Can't join? Follow it live on the Bolin Centre YouTube-channel. Abstract As a scientist, you are a professional writer: your career is built on successful proposals and papers. Two elements are fundamental to writing successfully: structure and language. Our writing is successful when we tell an effective story about nature and how it works. But stories work because they have effective structure that puts the right information in the right place - so how do we structure a strong story? How do we use different structures for different types of documents? Academics also have acquired a collection of bad, and unnecessary, language habits that weaken communication. We like reading good writing - so how do we write it? ------------------------------------------ Bolin Centre for Climate Research Stockholm University SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In Swedish | Klimatförändringar gör vissa väderprognoser svårare De pågående klimatförändringarna gör det svårare att förutspå vissa aspekter av vädret, visar en ny studie från Bolincenterforskare vid Meteorologiska institutionen, Stockholms universitet. Studien gäller väderprognoser på 3–10 dagars sikt i norra hemisfären och störst osäkerhet uppstår när det gäller förmågan att förutspå regnmängder under sommarhalvåret, något som kan få stor betydelse för beredskapen inför översvämningar.
