Dear colleagues, Please consider participating in this session on leading edge challenges in climate science. Abstracts are due by August 6. GC029. Cutting-Edge Challenges in Climate Change Science
Description:
This session seeks to organize and bring together presentations that overview the most pressing issues and concerns surrounding global climate change. It is intended to highlight well-recognized problems and underscore new and pressing developments in climate research. We are seeking abstracts identifying, defining and addressing a critical issue in climate science, possibly including but not limited to geoengineering, key regional impacts, short-lived greenhouse gases, fast vs. slow feedbacks, paleoclimate reconstructions and ice sheet contributions to sea level rise. Bringing these discussions together at this time is a critical endeavor as the challenges are often interactive and/or interdependent.
