Monday seminar - Cécile Agosta - Antarctic surface climate and snow processes: insights from atmospheric modeling
The next BCCR Monday Seminar will be given by Cécile Agosta from Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement. She will present her work on "Antarctic surface climate and snow processes: insights from atmospheric modeling". The seminar will take place in the usual BCCR seminar room (4th floor of the West wing) at 14:30.
BCCR Workshop: The Lofoten Basin Eddy in a Regional Context: from Physics to Ecosystem Dynamics
We are excited to invite you to an interesting workshop on The Lofoten Basin Eddy in a Regional Context: from Physics to Ecosystem Dynamics. The workshop aims to promote the discussion on state-of-the-art research, identify key priorities, and coordinate collaborative efforts to advance our understanding of the dynamics and biogeochemistry of the LBE, and its significance for the regional ecosystems. The event will feature speakers representing initiatives such as NorSWOT, NorGlider, and the PROVOLO project. The complete agenda will follow.
When: Wednesday, October 15, 9:00-13:30
Where: BCCR Lecture room, 4th floor

Bjerknes proposal writing class
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. Link to all the lectures: (will follow)
Link to the special seminar: (will follow)
Link to all teaching material: (will follow)
Class format and time effort:
Weekly alternating lectures and writing seminars
Lecture-sessions consist of 1 hour lecture + up to 30 minutes question/discussion online: background and guidelines for a specific proposal aspect, instructions for specific remote work on your proposal;
Writing sessions consist of 1 hour writing on-site: perform remote work, present results and get feedback.
Remote work:
1-2 hours/week remote work on your proposal (in addition to writing seminars)
To be performed by the next class
Individual meetings with assigned adviser and/or scientific mentor on demand
You will get individual written feedback on your remote work from your assigned adviser
Imperfect and tentative individual work is better than no remote work!

Lansering: Nytt kunnskapsgrunnlag klart for klima i Norge
Mandag 27. oktober kl. 11–12 presenterer Norsk klimaservicesenter den ferskeste kunnskapen som viser hvordan stadig økende temperatur endrer Norge. Dette gjør at vi må tilpasse oss for å minimere risiko og sikre liv og verdier.

Hazards meeting November 7
Out next meeting will be November 7th at 10am.
More information, including a lunch sign-up, will be shared closer to the date, but please mark your calendars now.
If you would like to present your research at the meeting, please contact us. Otherwise, we may reach out to you.
Cheers
