Seminar series<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Climate and water<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Climate variability and change have emerged as critical challenges for global water systems. Academic effort is often directed at producing projections for water availability, floods and their potential impacts for the 2030-2100 period based on projected emission scenarios. However, considerable uncertainty and significant methodological biases plague these projections, limiting their utility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open to all, this monthly seminar series seeks to highlight what can be understood and projected in the near- and longer-term based on our understanding of theoretical climate dynamics, large-scale features of the ocean\u2019s organization and climate that produce persistent regimes of extreme climate, inferences from paleoclimate data, IPCC style projections and modern machine learning and AI tools. The series also includes some of the responses to climate extremes and climate change effects on things like water quality, scarcity, access and agricultural availability, which impact nations and communities differently.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n
