Harvard Climate Seminar

"From the Troposphere to the Stratosphere: Physical and Chemical Details Linking Chemistry and Radiative Forcing" by Frank Keutsch (Harvard/SEAS) Abstract: Tropospheric ozone and secondary aerosol affect climate and are known to harm human health and...

Speaker: Shang-Ping Xie (Scripps Institution of Oceanography) Abstract: Global mean temperature has risen for the past century and is projected to rise even more in response to the increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Precipitation change is of...

Speaker: Dr. Clara Deser (NCAR/UCAR) Abstract: This talk will highlight the relative importance of internally-generated vs. externally-forced climate trends at local and regional scales over North America and Eurasia based on a 30-member ensemble of the...

Speaker: Dr. Gerald Haug (ETH Zurich) Abstract: We argue for a pervasive link between cold climates and polar ocean stratification. In both the Subarctic North Pacific and the Antarctic Zone of the Southern Ocean, ice ages were marked by low productivity...

Speaker: Dr. Colette Heald (MIT)
