The 18th International Swiss Climate Summer School focuses on the theme «Carbon and climate in the Paris world: getting out of the fossil fuel carbon budget crunch». It is motivated by the current paradoxical situation wherein the internationally recognized warming targets of 2°C or even 1.5°C imply a tightly limited fossil fuel emission budget for the entire 21st century, while the trends in the fossil fuel emissions suggest that this budget is consumed within the next one to three decades. With conventional mitigation and adaptation options not sufficiently exploited, humankind may need to deploy unconventional methods to meet its climate target. In this highly interdisciplinary summer school, we will learn about and discuss · the nature, size, and controlling processes of this carbon budget, · the drivers behind past and future fossil fuel emissions, · the climatic consequences of the Paris agreement, · the options available to us to create negative emissions, and · the socio-economic drivers that can either accelerate or decelerate these developments. This summer school addresses Early Stage Researchers, i.e. PhD students and postdocs from the climate, engineering, social and economic sciences. In addition to keynote lectures from internationally renowned experts and extensive time for discussions and poster sessions, two half days will be spent in smaller groups working jointly on concrete case studies, involving practitioners. The theme of the summer school is very timely, as the role and potential of negative emissions is a rapidly emerging topic for science, technology, and policymaking alike, and has also led to several initiatives around the world. All Summer School participants are expected to present a poster of their research.

We've been granted permission to email this list asking for volunteers to participate (in an unofficial, non-Bolin Center, personal capacity). The format will be along the lines of having a group of researchers at the desk throughout the day (each for an hour, or longer) to take climate-related questions from the public, plus some scheduled short street lectures from researchers about a topic they know more about. Equipment (desks, whiteboards, large screen) will be provided. If you'd like to be involved then fill out when you can be available at the desk here: https://doodle.com/poll/4ixsqapnhek5g6s9. If you'd also like to give a short street lecture, then leave a comment on the doodle or email to say what you'd like to talk about and when you're free. I'm not sure what the timing of other events during the day will be yet, but once that's clearer we can confirm timings nearer the time. There will also likely be an opportunity to show personal support for the #Scientists4Future initiative as well (https://www.scientists4future.org/international/ & https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aax3807), which many Bolin Centre scientists have signed already.

She is working on atmospheric dynamics and how different atmospheric flow regimes impact thermodynamics (temperatures, moisture, clouds etc.) in the Arctic. If anyone is interested in touching base with her when she's here let me know. Tiina is looking for somewhere to stay during this period, fitting for a family like a two bedroom apartment or similar, preferably located so its easy to get to campus with public transportation. If anyone has an idea of something available, or better still can offer something, either contact Tiina directly (at Tiina.Nygard at fmi.fi) or get in touch with me.

Recently, we have produced the first order draft which is now out for review. Since so much relevant expertise come together in the Bolin Centre, I think it would be great if there is also participation in the important review process. There is a formal procedure to register as a reviewer, and one has to be confidential about the contents of the draft. Signing up does not necessitate actually making a review, and absolutely not of the whole thing. You can register here: https://apps.ipcc.ch/comments/ar6wg1/fod/register.php At this stage we prefer more substantial comments, i.e. not about typos, and one should avoid only making many comments that we are to cite your papers. Some of this is of course okay, if you think we have missed something important, but use your expertise then to also provide a broader view on the literature, e.g. where there are conflicts or alternative lines of evidence. Registration deadline is 15 June, and review deadline is 23 June. The entire schedule of the report can be found here https://wg1.ipcc.ch/AR6/AR6.html.

The marine micrometeorological station Östergarnsholm has been used since 1995 for studies focusing various aspects of air-sea interaction. Using a land-based site for marine studies puts extra stress on the evaluation of site and data, but also gives the possibility of relatively long-term data sets. The talk will include new results concerning air-surface exchange and air-sea interaction. Since 2015 the Östergarnsholm site is the only marine site in the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation System), and data focusing the role of Östergarnsholm and coastal seas in the global carbon cycle will be addressed.

Here I use seasonal reconstructions of sea level pressure and temperature, based on oxygen isotope data from Greenland ice cores and a model simulation using an isotope enabled climate model, to investigate the climate impact of solar and volcanic forcing. For both summer and winter I see no consistent correlation between solar forcing and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). However, there is a consistent solar impact on secondary circulation modes. On the other hand, low latitude volcanic eruptions cause a persistent positive NAO, while high latitude volcanic eruptions cause a persistent negative NAO for both seasons. I will also discuss the impact of the forcings in context of atmosphere-ocean interaction. Best regards, Qiong -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Advances in computing are however making it possible to revisit the climate modelling enterprise, to create models whose physical foundation is much stronger. In doing so we hope to mitigate against long standing and intractable deficiencies in present day climate models. In this talk I will try to explain why next generation climate models are much more than higher-resolution versions of existing models, what we hope to learn about the climate system from their capabilities, and why taking theses steps is so important.

The 1.5°C temperature target is a global average and does not reflect the warming to which people have been exposed. People experience climate change through the temperature changes where they themselves live, rather than through the global mean warming. Therefore, public health specialists track an alternate measure of climate change called the “exposure weighted” warming - this is averaging only the portions of the globe where people live. Here I present for the first time exposure-weighted temperature since the preindustrial – at both global and national level – and incorporate the urban heat island effect. Climate change brings up many issues around fairness. To highlight how awkward these can be, I explore the consequences the definition of “preindustrial”. I devise a novel pattern-scaling technique that not only reconstructs the mean pattern and local uncertainty to look at this for temperatures (where it doesn’t make much difference). I also use a climate-economy model it could save over $10tn globally. The less developed regions, which have the lowest historic emissions, would benefit most from adopting an early pre-industrial baseline. All are welcome!!

Throughout the Quaternary, the Arctic shelf experienced a varied climatic and dynamic geologic history. During periods of low sea level many of these marine shelf areas were not covered with water but were exposed to mean annual air temperatures of −20°C or less. These cold temperatures caused the formation of significant permafrost and also established favourable pressure and temperature conditions for gas hydrates. In contrast, sea level rise during interglacial periods resulted in marine transgression, yielding degradation of offshore permafrost and associated gas hydrates. Read the full abstract here.
