Dear all,
Monday (16th December) at 14:15, there will be the last BCCR seminar of 2024, by Clemens Spensberger on “Using teleconnections to link weather to climate”.
The seminar will take place in Bjerknes lecture room (4th floor, room 4020). For those not able to attend in person, it will be possible to join on zoom.
Abstract
Conventionally, teleconnections in the atmosphere are described by correlations between monthly mean fields. These correlations are supposedly caused by stationary Rossby waves. I will in this talk explore the hypothesis that teleconnections are instead established by chains of events on synoptic timescales, that is by weather.
This talk will be my farewell to GFI and the Bjerknes Centre, and I will use the occasion to synthesise a number of published and recent results to underpin what was the main hypothesis for my attempt at an ERC Starting Grant, now instead published as a WCD Idea paper.
About the speaker
I am a researcher in dynamic meteorology and have been at GFI and the Bjerknes Centre since early 2011, moving to Bergen to take a PhD with Thomas Spengler. I have been abroad a few years for a postdoc mobility stipend, but otherwise spent all my academic life here in Bergen. I started out trying to better understand the behaviour of individual mid-latitude weather systems, first and foremost jet streams, but increasingly tried to use this lens to build bridges to longer time scales.
