The Perturbed Carbon Cycle Working Group has several ongoing activities, focussing on the climate response to CO2 and CH4 emissions, the risk of extreme events and associated rapid change in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) sources and sinks, overshoot scenarios, and the reversibility of the anthropogenic perturbation in the context of negative emissions (Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), but potentially also methane removal)

Show moreThis document presents recommendations for sampling physical ocean fields for the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project #5 (CMIP5) numerical experiments. These experiments are of particular interest for the 5th IPCC assessment (IPCC-AR5). We include guidelines for space and time sampling, and rationalizations for a list of fields to be archived. The perspective taken here is that of physical ocean scientists aiming to enhance the scientific utility of model simulations contributing to CMIP5. We focus on the liquid ocean in this document. The audience for this document includes the CLIVARWorking Group for Coupled Modeling (WGCM), ocean modelers contributing results to CMIP5, and scientists aiming to analyze CMIP5 simulations.

Daniella is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Planning at Utah State University. Her research focuses on building resilience in the face of the climate crisis. She brings together the fields of urban ecology and environmental planning to investigate the management and design of sustainable places. She formulates her research to build a bridge between theory and planning practice.
The GMAO analysis and experimental forecast products for YOTC were provided from an experimental deterministic forecasting system. This system is comprised of a 3-dimensional variational data assimilation system (3D-Var), using the GEOS-5 atmospheric model with the grid-point statistical interpolation (GSI) analysis developed in collaboration with NCEP. The global model's horizontal grid spacing for YOTC is 1/4 1/3---twice the resolution of the routine GEOS-5 products.
The specific contributions provided by GMAO included both assimilation and forecast products. The assimilation products consist of 1/4 analyses produced every 6 hours by the GSI and higher frequency products produced by the atmospheric model during the corrector segment of the Incremental Analysis Update (IAU). Forecast products were identical to the model generated assimilation products but from once.daily 5-day forecasts from the 0Z analysis. For the model-generated products, the 3D fields were output at 3-hourly intervals and the 2D fields were hourly. The 3D fields were a combination of instantaneous state variables and time averaged diagnostics. All hourly fields were time averages.
In addition, aerosol products consistent with the analyses are available. The GMAO YOTC data set begins in January 2009 and will extend through the end of the YOTC period. Selected time periods from 2008 may also be available before the completion of the YOTC project.
The GMAO's YOTC products are experimental products that are generated on a best effort basis. The system used to generate the products is part of our parallel validation suite and may be upgraded at any time to correct bugs or deficiencies.
The GMAO's YOTC data products are openly available to the community. Their predictions are experimental and are produced for research purposes only. Use of the forecasts for purposes other than research is not recommended. Publications based in whole or in part on data supplied by GMAO should contain an acknowledgment concerning the supplied data.
This dataset collection provides zonal-mean diagnostics computed from reanalysis data sets on pressure levels. It is divided into two components. The first provides dynamical variables like temperature, geopotential height, and wind field and derived diagnostics such as eddy fluxes and a complete budget of zonal momentum. The second provides heating rates. In both components, data is provided on two grids. The first provides the diagnostics on the same grid on which reanalysis data was obtained. The second provides, using horizontal interpolation, the diagnostics on a common grid for all data sets. All diagnostics are provided as a function of latitude and pressure from 1958 to present, depending on each reanalysis' availability.
This data set was produced to facilitate the comparison of reanalysis data sets for the collaborators of the SPARC-Reanalysis Intercomparison Project (S-RIP). The data set is substantially smaller in size compared to the full three-dimensional reanalysis fields and uses standardized numerical methods. The data set includes all global reanalyses available at the time of its development and will be extended to include new reanalysis products in the future.
The Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) is an international and interdisciplinary organization for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, early career faculty members, early career professionals, educators and others with interests in Polar and Alpine regions and the wider cryosphere.
The EGG is open to any ECS (Early-Career Scientist) in glaciology or related snow and ice sciences. Our aims are to enhance the cryosphere ECS community (socially and professionally), particularly within the IGS, and to provide additional support to ECS in cryosphere-related fields.
Ice Core Young Scientists (ICYS) is an informal, international network of early career scientists dedicated to the study of polar and alpine ice cores and ice core-related sciences. Our purpose is to foster personal connections among young scientists from around the world, in order to build a supportive ice core science community and to inspire future collaborations.
The PAGES Early-Career Network (ECN) aims to facilitate the exchange of ideas and skill sets in order to give early-career researchers the tools to excel in their research fields. The ECN helps with the dissemination of information, establishes vital scientific networks, and fosters the development of ideas that can lead to future research collaborations and improved job prospects.
The Permafrost Young Researchers Network (PYRN) is an international organization established under the patronage of the International Permafrost Association (IPA) fostering innovative collaboration, seeking to recruit, retain and promote future generations of permafrost researchers. Initiated during the 4th International Polar Year (IPY), PYRN directs the multi-disciplinary talents of its membership toward global awareness, knowledge and response to permafrost-related challenges in a changing climate. They are partnered with APECS.
The primary objective of WCRP Capacity Development is to empower long-term achievements in climate research. In this context, WCRP promotes current and future leadership in climate science, making particular efforts to support and engage Early Career Researchers (ECRs) from all regions in the world, toward a sustainable climate research community.
An interdisciplinary, international, and bottom-up early career researchers (ECR) network in the Earth system sciences, YESS promotes both local and global collaborations and exchange among early career scientists (ECS) across disciplines related to Earth system sciences, while actively fostering career development. YESS aims to contribute to shape and provide a collective voice to the (inter)national research agenda and initiatives, and create opportunities for future leaders around the globe. YESS also aims to enhance opportunities for early career researchers from underrepresented regions and identities to generate a more inclusive and equitable research community.
