Dear all, The next BCCR Monday Seminar will be given by David W. J. Thompson from the Department of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University and the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia. He will present his work on Some new insights into observed atmosphere/ice/ocean interactions in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The seminar will take place in the usual BCCR seminar room (4th floor of the West wing) at 11:00. We hope to see you there! Best regards, Fiona and Johannes Speaker information David W. J. Thompson is a distinguished atmospheric scientist whose work has significantly advanced understanding of climate variability and large-scale atmospheric circulation.
