The
Climate Systems Engineering initiative (CSEi) supports Field Building
Workshops, which are held at UChicago 3-4 times per year. The workshops
help define the research agenda for climate systems engineering.
Field
Building Workshops take place over 1.5 to 3 days and typically involve
10-20 people. Workshops may bring together faculty, postdocs, graduate
students, international visitors, government officials, industry
professionals, representatives of non-governmental organizations, and
others who could bring expertise and perspectives needed to define
research directions for climate systems engineering. Workshops will
receive funding and logistical support from the CSEi.

Learn about climate change and its impacts as explained in plain
language, develop an understanding of climate systems engineering as a
solution to climate change problems, and discover how open...
Upcoming Field Building Workshop
Workshop Motivation: A common and reasonable concern about solar
geoengineering is the chance of low-probability high-consequence harmful
outcomes. Some of these concerns relate to socio-political
uncertainties such as reduced effort to...
Past Field Building Workshop
Workshop Motivation: Some quantity of active carbon dioxide removal
from the atmosphere will likely feature in optimal climate policy to
substitute for emissions reductions in hard-to-abate sectors or to
reduce...
Past Field Building Workshop
Workshop Motivation: The IPCC AR6 projects that sea level will rise by
0.5 to 1.0 m by 2100, with a low-likelihood, high-impact possibility of
2.0 m. Furthermore, sea level will...
