BCCR seminar room (4th floor of the West wing)

The last BCCR Monday Seminar of the year will be given next Monday (December 15th) by Robert Pickart from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. He will present his work on "Vertical carbon export during an under-ice phytoplankton bloom in the Chukchi Sea".

Abstract

In order to quantify pelagic-benthic coupling on high-latitude shelves it is imperative to identify the different physical mechanisms by which phytoplankton are exported to the sediments. In June-July 2023, a field program documented the evolution of an under-ice phytoplankton bloom on the northeast Chukchi shelf. Here we use in-situ data from the cruise, a simple numerical model, historical water column data, and ocean reanalysis fields to characterize the physical setting and describe the dynamically-driven vertical export of chlorophyll associated with the bloom.

Carbon System Group meeting

Dear all, we would like to invite you to a Carbon System Group meeting (17.02., 13-15:00h, BCCR undervisningsrom in the 4th floor) focused on dialogue and strengthening cooperation within the group. We would like to: discuss the strategy currently being developed at the Bjerknes Centre and openly discuss concerns related to this strategy explore new meeting formats that are more interactive, better connected to ongoing activities, and supportive of collaboration and networking Inspire cooperation by inviting 10 people (chosen alphabetically on the group list - you will receive an additional email if you are among the chosen ones) to give a very short presentation (2–3 slides, 3–5 minutes) addressing: What you will work on in the next 12 months What you would love to do scientifically if there were no constraints What kind of cooperation or expertise would help or be needed to make this scientific wish possible Our aim is to find a way of meeting that is useful, engaging, and relevant to you, and that helps us stay up to date while strengthening scientific cooperation across the group. We very much hope you will join us for this session and contribute to shaping both the strategy discussion and a meeting format that works well for the Carbon System Group. If you have thoughts or wishes regarding the meeting format or topics you would like to see addressed, feel free to share them with us. All the best Nadine and Are

BCCR X-theme Seminar: AMOC

Dear all, The AMOC is a heavily discussed topic in the Climate Research Community. Even though it is perceived as a conveyor belt, which would imply a fully closed and coherent system, there is growing discussion suggesting a more intricate and dynamically variable structure. Hence, we are delighted to announce our monthly BCCR X-Theme seminar next week on Monday, February 2nd, at 11:00, with the title “AMOC”, presented by Marius Årthun, Malte Jürchott and Martin Miles. Marius Årthun will present "Status observations and projections”. Malte Jürchott will present “Analysing tipping dynamics of the AMOC in NorESM2 - current status and future plans”. Martin Miles will present “Impacts of AMOC collapse”. Following the three presentations, a general discussion about the topic will take place. We hope to see you there! Best regards, Fiona and Johannes
