BCCR- Extreme Events Cross Theme Seminar

Today Monday, 6th Dec, at 14:15 pm will be the first of the BCCR cross-theme seminars, occurring the first Monday of every month. Please note that the colloquium series will run from 14.15 -15.15, slightly longer than the typically scheduled BCCR seminar slots.
 
The cross-theme seminar will feature four separate talks:
• Clio Michel: The atmospheric circulation during extreme precipitation events associated with atmospheric rivers in Norway
• Anaïs Bretones: Arctic overturning and winter sea-ice extent during the 21st century
• Friedrike Fröb: Towards detecting compound marine heatwaves and ocean acidic extremes in MPI-GE
• Marie Pontoppidan: Marine heatwaves: the added value of a coupled regional model
 
Please Note: Due to the new restrictions and suggested home-office we encourage participation via the zoom meeting this week. For the speakers, the seminar will be held in person in the Bjerknes lecture room (4th floor west-wing, room 4020) –If you plan to attend in person, keep distance and if we cannot keep distance we will wear face masks.
 
Topic: BCCR- Extreme Events Cross Theme Seminar
Time: Dec 6, 2021 14:15 Oslo
 
 
-----------------------
The BCCR seminar series will soon take a break for the holidays, though there is a free spot on the 13th of December. As always if you are interested in sharing your work with the BCCR community, get in touch with me and fill out the seminar form (https://skjemaker.app.uib.no/view.php?id=2969462).
 
The next BCCR cross-theme seminar will occur on January 10th 2022: Cryosphere.

Polar Theme meeting

#BCCRpolar meeting will be on Wednesday the 8th of December 10:00-13:00 including lunch at “Pynten” meeting room at IMR, Nordnes (!). Please add this to your calendar now and be prepared to work on the new Bjerknes strategy plan including suggestions for key tasks to accomplish in the coming 5 year period.

As for this last #BCCRpolar meeting we will have a back to back seminar on an exiting research topic (similar to the Greenland seminar last week). Details on this will come later. If you have topics, or want to host a seminar for everyone at polar let us know - we should start on a program for next year.

A sign-up sheet + zoom link for remote participation will be sent later.
