Discussion Series: Tipping elements, irreversibility, and abrupt change in the Earth system
Register for the discussion series on ‘Tipping Elements, Irreversibility, and Abrupt Changes in the Earth System.’ This first session will provide an overview of tipping elements and extreme events in the climate system with talks by Tim Lenton and Sonia Seneviratne followed by a discussion session.
Open Modeling Foundation Update
Over the past two years, the OMF initiative has held a series of strategic planning workshops to inform modeling organizations about the initiative and compile input and suggestions. The last of the planning workshops was held at the beginning of June, 2021. Here we summarize the advances made and discuss next steps for OMF.
