Carbon summer meeting with lunch
Instead of the workshop that was initially planned, we have opted for a smaller format with two invited talks and a discussion session: Huiji Lee: Alkalinity Redistribution Leads to Weakened Global Ocean CO₂ Uptake Pushpak Nadar: Enhanced Antarctic Intermediate Water Ventilation During Past AMOC Weakening and Implications for Thermocline Biogeochemistry Both speakers will present their work in a way that is accessible to a broad audience. After the talks, Are will lead a discussion session, followed by a joint lunch. We also hope that Ralph Keeling will be able to join us. Time: 23 June, 11:00–13:00 Lunch: Provided free of charge If you would like to attend, please fill out the registration form by 12 June (so that we know how much lunch we should order): Carbon Theme meeting, 23.06., 11-13h – Fill out form
