Read more Increase in climate emissions within the industry and energy sector in 2021 The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency recently published Sweden's official statistics for emissions and uptake of greenhouse gases for 2021. Sweden's territorial emissions of greenhouse gases increased by 3.4 percent in 2021 compared to 2020. The main explanation for the increase in emissions is the industry's rise from low production levels and increased use of fossil fuels in the electricity and heating sector, which was caused by colder weather and higher electricity prices. Sweden's long-term climate goal means that emissions of greenhouse gases must be net zero by 2045 at the latest.

Best regards, Inga Koszalka ________________________________________ From: Inga Koszalka Sent: Monday, December 19, 2022 9:31 AM To: bolincentret-at-su.se at lists.su.se Subject: Ice shelves and tidewater glaciers at EGU 2023! Dear Colleagues, We warmly invite you to submit contributions to the session CR3.4/OS2 "Ice shelves and tidewater glaciers - dynamics, interactions, observations, modelling" at the EGU General Assembly 2023 that will take place in Vienna on 23-28 April 2023. The session site with the abstract submission link can be found at: https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU23/session/45849 The deadline for abstract submission is Tuesday, 10 January 2023, 13:00 CET. Ice shelves and tidewater glaciers are sensitive elements of the climate system. Sandwiched between atmosphere and ocean, they are vulnerable to changes in either. The recent disintegration of ice shelves such as Larsen B and Wilkins on the Antarctic Peninsula, current thinning of the ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea sector of West Antarctica, and the recent accelerations of many of Greenland's tidewater glaciers provide evidence of the rapidity with which those systems can respond. Changes in marine-terminating outlets appear to be intimately linked with acceleration and thinning of the ice sheets inland of the grounding line, with immediate consequences for global sea level. Studies of the dynamics and structure of the ice sheets' marine termini and their interactions with atmosphere and ocean are the key to improving our understanding of their response to climate forcing and of their buttressing role for ice streams. The main themes of this session are the dynamics of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers and their interaction with the ocean, atmosphere and the inland ice, including grounding line dynamics. The session includes studies on related processes such as calving, ice fracture, rifting and mass balance, as well as theoretical descriptions of mechanical and thermodynamic processes. We seek contributions both from numerical modelling of ice shelves and tidewater glaciers, including their oceanic and atmospheric environments, and from observational studies of those systems, including glaciological and oceanographic field measurements, as well as remote sensing and laboratory studies. We are looking forward to many exiting contributions from the Bolin Centre!

Earth system resilience critically depends on the nonlinear interplay of positive and negative feedbacks of biophysical and increasingly also socio-economic processes. These include dynamics and interactions between the carbon cycle, the atmosphere, oceans, large-scale ecosystems, and the cryosphere, as well as the dynamics and perturbations associated with human activities. With rising anthropogenic pressures, there is an increasing risk we might be hitting the ceiling of some of the self-regulating feedbacks of the Earth System, and cross tipping points which could trigger large-scale and partly irreversible impacts on the environment, and impact the livelihood of millions of people. Potential domino effects or tipping cascades could arise due to the interactions between these tipping elements and lead to a further decline of Earth resilience. At the same time, there is growing evidence supporting the potential of positive (social) tipping points that could propel rapid decarbonization and transformative change towards global sustainability. In this session we invite contributions on all topics relating to tipping points in the Earth system, positive (social) tipping, as well as their interaction and domino effects. We are particularly interested in various methodological approaches, from Earth system modelling to conceptual modelling and data analysis of nonlinearities, tipping points and abrupt shifts in the Earth system. - In the past few years, our session was very well attended (> 200 participants) online and offline and received many submissions. We are looking forward to exciting contributions and stimulating discussions in Vienna this year in the conference center, online and at our session dinner (to be announced). EGU2023 will be a hybrid conference and therefore abstracts are welcome from both in-person and remote presenters. The deadline for abstract submission is Tuesday 10th January 2023 at 13:00 CET. We look forward to seeing you at EGU 2023!

Do you write code for your research? Do you manage data? Most importantly, are you doing it properly? Has it ever happened to you to have to rewrite or simply copy-paste codes from one folder to another, possibly losing things during the process? Have you ever opened an old code you wrote and had no clue what it does? Maybe you feel you waste a lot of time doing a lot of manual work to process your data and would like to automate it? Or maybe you also are not doing any of this yet, but would like to avoid these issues from happening in the future and do things properly from the beginning? If you answered yes to any of the previous questions, then you are strongly encouraged to participate in the CodeRefinery workshop on March 21-23 and 28-30, 2023. Topics covered in the workshop include: * Using Git to maintain your codes and collaborate with others * Principles of reproducible research and FAIR * Good coding practices in general (writing documentation, testing, how to choose an appropriate license) * The Workshop will not teach you to code, but all the "good practice skills" that are needed to write good maintainable software and achieve reproducible research. The workshop will alternate type along tutorials given by instructors to break-out room exercises where you will get to practice. Each breakout room will have an exercise leader to help you. You can also register as a team, in which case the team will be in the same break out room (you can also exercise together in-person if you prefer), each team can propose their own exercise leader otherwise they will be assigned one. If you already have some experience and would like to strengthen your skills and help others, you can also volunteer as an exercise leader. Some places also offer in-person exercise sessions, check if there is a session offered near you from the workshop page below. More information and the registration form may be found on the workshop page: https://coderefinery.github.io/2023-03-21-workshop ============================================================================================= Training events organised by HPC centres in Sweden ============================================================================================= Online introduction to running R, Python, and Julia in HPC, 8-10 February 2023 Cooperation between HPC2N and UPPMAX Learn how to run R, Python, and Julia at Swedish HPC centres.

In particular, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), a class of Deep Learning (DL) networks, can be applied to scientific applications solving linear and non-linear equations with demanding accuracy and computational performance requirements. PINNs are specifically designed to integrate scientific computing equations, such as Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE), Partial Differential Equations (PDE), non-linear and integral-differential equations into the DL network training. This online event will take place during two half-days on 21-22 February 2023 and is designed to teach researchers and engineers how SciML can address domain-specific data challenges and extract insights from scientific datasets. The Bootcamp is co-organised by ENCCS, OpenACC.org and NVIDIA. Further information and registration at https://enccs.se/events/2023-02-sciml-gpu-bootcamp/. ============================================================================================= AMD GPU Hackathon, 7 and 14-16 March, 2023 Dardel is a Swedish flagship supercomputer operated by PDC at KTH in Stockholm. It is an HPE Cray EX system with AMD EPYC™ 64 core CPUs and AMD Instinct MI250X GPUs. Compute time on Dardel is available for academic research via SNIC. This hackathon, which will be held in-person at KTH in Stockholm, is for teams of research software developers who want to accomplish one or more of the following goals: 1. Port their code to run on AMD Instinct™ GPUs using any of the GPU programming frameworks. 2. Improve the performance of code that already runs on AMD Instinct™ GPUs 3. Scale up their codes to multiple AMD Instinct™ GPUs During the hackathon, project teams will be paired up with expert mentors from HPE, AMD, PDC and ENCCS who will guide them during the hackathon to accomplish their stated goals. Teams attending the event will be given access to the Dardel system ahead of the hackathon. Each team should have at least two members who are prepared to work full-time on their projects for the duration of the hackathon. We furthermore also strongly encourage diversity in project teams.
