New research illustrates that the key to recognizing the influence of the Gulf Stream and Kuroshio Extension on the seasonal mean and longer-term climate is through a proper understanding of how the ocean influences atmospheric fronts.
Abstract submission and registration are now open for a workshop on Sources and Sinks of Ocean Mesoscale Eddy Energy that will take place March 12–14, 2019 in Tallahassee, Florida. Abstracts are due November 16.
Over 300 scientists kicked off the International Conferences on Subseasonal to Decadal Prediction with the latest research results from the weather and climate community. Read the daily summaries for a few highlights from the meeting.
The Ocean Carbon Hot Spots workshop brought together the research community studying western boundary current regions to discuss gaps in understanding, observing and modeling challenges, and newly available tools. This report synthesizes the workshop and identifies recommendations for next steps.
Uncertainty is an inherent part of science and is fundamental to scientific progress. The articles in this edition shed light on some ways in which uncertainties in climate projections can be assessed, managed, and communicated.
Members of the US CLIVAR community are sharing some of their thoughts on the value to the scientific community, stories and achievements from over the years, and hopes for the future.
The US AMOC Science Team will officially sunset on December 31, 2020. Leading up to this date, the team will undertake activities to ensure the community is well-positioned to continue advancing AMOC research. Ideas and suggestion are welcome.
For the past 20 years, the US CLIVAR program has addressed some of the most pressing research questions to understand the climate system, particularly the great uncertainties related to the role of the ocean. To recognize the community and build on achievements, the program will host several events throughout the year.
