New research: How do volcanic eruptions affect El Niño? El Niño events – major warmings of the tropical Pacific Ocean occurring every two to seven years – have major societal impacts in North and South America and other parts of the world. The mechanisms through which volcanic eruptions affect the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle are not clear. New research (https://bolin.su.se/about-us/news/how-do-volcanic-eruptions-affect-el-ni%C3%B1o-1.502366) by an international team led by former Bolin Centre scientist Francesco S. R. Pausata, now at the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM), and including Rodrigo Caballero, researcher at the Department of Meteorology at Stockholm University, suggests a new explanation for how this response might happen. New study could help predict plant species responses to climate change A new global study (https://www.su.se/deep/english/about-us/news/new-study-could-help-predict-plant-species-responses-to-climate-change-1.502037) which could help to predict plant species losses and responses to climate change and warming has been published. Do you also have interesting new research that you would like to share? Please contact bolin at su.se (mailto:bolin at su.se) . New collaboration strengthens national climate and biodiversity research The graduate research schools ClimBEco and the Bolin Centre Climate Research School (CRS) have recently initiated a collaboration with multiple climate-focused intentions. The joint activities will strengthen the course curriculum and network possibilities for the respective PhD students and contribute to the advancement of the climate and biodiversity research front.

Message-ID: <0be73d4e0fcf418a8c09ee32b03fac7d@natgeo.su.se> Welcome to the RA3 Zoom series on "Perspectives of Hydrology and Water Resources" where we invite renown researchers of water resources and hydrology from around the world. For the month of June, we welcome Prof. Paolo D‘Odorico from University of California, Berkeley. Date and time: Monday June 15th at 16:00; Join by Zoom https://stockholmuniversity.zoom.us/j/8295564699 Title: Water sustainability and food security: How to reconcile the rights of Nature with human needs Abstract: Water availability is a major factor constraining humanity’s ability to meet the future food and energy needs of a growing and increasingly affluent human population. Water plays an important role in the production of energy, including renewable energy and fossil fuel extraction. The emergent competition for water between the food and energy sectors is increasingly recognized as a research priority to inform to ongoing debate on the “food-energy-water nexus” and provide resource managers and policy makers with suitable scenarios for a sustainable future. Here I will discuss how the increasing global demand for energy and farmland products is placing unprecedented pressure on the global agricultural system and its water resources and reshaping the patterns of water dependency through teleconnections between consumers and production areas. Competition in water use for food and energy production constitutes the core of an emerging debate that is stimulating new questions on the environmental, ethical, economic, and policy implications of human appropriation of water resources. This seminar will examine the ways water resources may constrain food and energy production and the local impacts of global water use trends. Bio: Paolo D’Odorico is Professor of Ecohydrology and Water Resources in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management at the University of California, Berkeley. He received his Ph.D. from the university of Padua (Italy), has been a postdoc at Princeton, and Texas A&M and a faculty member at the University of Virginia. His research focuses on the role of hydrological processes in the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems and societies. His work in ecohydrology has analyzed the coupling between hydrological processes and the biota in dryland ecosystems. Through field observations and modeling he is studying new mechanisms of desertification and factors contributing to the resilience of ecosystems at the desert margins. He is currently investigating the global patterns of water use for food and energy production and their impacts on water equity, societal resilience, and food security.

We hope to add to it and would like to request your contribution to the discussion. Myself, Patrick Crill and Sally MacIntyre would like to draw your attention to our AGU session on " Gas Fluxes from and into Inland and Coastal Waters: Integrating Hydrodynamics and Biogeochemistry " Please consider submitting an abstract and/or send it to potentially interested people. Gas Fluxes from and into Inland and Coastal Waters: Integrating Hydrodynamics and Biogeochemistry https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm20/prelim.cgi/Session/103508 Investigating the physical as well as chemical connections between land and associated fresh and coastal waters is critical for understanding the dynamics of carbon in aquatic systems. Rates of lateral and vertical transport moderate time scales of loading, remineralization, mobilization, and release of climate forcing carbon gases (GHG). Defining physical and biological controls on climate relevant gas emissions enables scaling for carbon budgets. Time series measurements of concentrations and fluxes of GHGs coupled with meteorology and physical limnology/oceanography illustrate the importance of physical controls such as stratification, turbulent heat and momentum flux, ice cover, and mixing dynamics. Modeling and analytical capacities are keeping pace, while new tools and approaches allow results to be placed in the context of variability within the climate system. Presentations are invited which examine linkages between measurements of GHG emissions and forcings that define variability of fluxes from surface waters at local to regional scales.
