Dear all, Next Monday, October 20, we have our next X-theme seminar. The topic will be “Feedbacks in the Climate System”, presented by Jörg Schwinger, Carlo Mans and Erik Kolstad. Jörg Schwinger will present on "Earth system feedbacks in scenarios with activity-driven simulation of carbon dioxide removal" for Carbon. From Polar, Carlo Mans will present "Arctic overturning variability during recent sea ice decline". For Hazards and Global, Erik Kolstad will present on his paper “Causal oceanic feedbacks onto the winter NAO”. We hope to see you there!

The Bjerknes Proposal Writing Class (Bjerknes proposal writing training 2) is an offer to scientists at the Bjerknes Centre who plan to submit a project proposal in 2026 and have little or no experience yet in proposal writing. By taking the class, you will consecutively develop your idea into a proposal draft and finally, a complete proposal ready to submit within the deadlines of 2026. This writing class will complement the support you get from your academic supervisor or scientific mentor but cannot replace that kind of support. Lectures online on zoom.
