SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (Speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Alyssa Stansfield TITLE: How and Why Does Tropical Cyclone Precipitation Respond to Climate Change? ABSTRACT Tropical cyclone (TC) precipitation can create dangerous hazards and cause millions of dollars in damages. While previous literature agrees that future TC precipitation will increase due to rising global temperatures, the estimates of how much it will increase vary, ranging from around 3 to 20% per ?C of warming, or three times the Clausius-Clapeyron scaling (about 7% per ?C). In this talk, various methodologies and datasets are utilized to disentangle the interwoven factors that impact the response of TC precipitation to warming, including TC intensity, outer size, landfall frequency, and increases in atmospheric moisture. Results are first presented for the North Atlantic and eastern United States specifically and then generalized globally using idealized aquaplanet model simulations. The idealized simulations are compared to more realistic global model simulations and satellite observations of TC precipitation. Finally, proposed high-resolution (~1 km) limited-domain idealized simulations with the goal of exploring changes in three-dimensional TC precipitation structures as sea surface temperatures warm are discussed.

The primary objective of this study is to seek a general explanation for the quasi-linear OLR-TS relation that remains valid regardless of the strength of the atmospheric window?s narrowing effect on planetary thermal emission at higher temperatures. The physical understanding of the quasi-linear OLR-TS relation and its slope is gained from observation analysis, climate simulations with radiative-convective equilibrium and general circulation models, and a series of online feedback suppression experiments. The observed quasi-linear OLR-TS relation manifests a climate footprint of radiative (such as the greenhouse effect) and non-radiative processes (poleward energy transport). The former acts to increase the meridional gradient of surface temperature and the latter decreases the meridional gradient of atmospheric temperatures, causing the flattening of the meridional profile of the OLR. Radiative processes alone can lead to a quasi-linear OLR-TS relation that is more steeply sloped. The atmospheric poleward energy transport alone can also lead to a quasi-linear OLR-TS relation by rerouting part of the OLR to be emitted from a warmer place to a colder place. The combined effects of radiative and non-radiative processes make the quasi-linear OLR-TS relation less sloped with a higher degree of linearity. In response to anthropogenic radiative forcing, the slope of the quasi-linear OLR-TS relation is further reduced via stronger water vapor feedback and enhanced poleward energy transport. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (Speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Qiu Yang TITLE: Impact of Global Warming on U.S. Summertime Mesoscale Convective Systems: A Simple Lagrangian Parcel Model Perspective ABSTRACT Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are the dominant rainfall producer in the U.S. during the warm season, causing natural disasters and severe weather every year. Global climate models have large uncertainty in projecting precipitation changes in the future climate. Here we developed a simple Lagrangian parcel model (includes single- and multi-column models) to investigate the impact of global warming on MCS initiation and growth. The single-column parcel model projects a mean precipitation decrease over the central U.S. and an increase to its east, in agreement with the CMIP5 model projection. It also highlights the crucial role of current climate mean state model bias in influencing future mean precipitation projection. As for convective population, the model captures the decreased occurrence frequency of weak to moderate convection and increased frequency of strong convection due to the increased CAPE and CIN, in agreement with convection-permitting regional simulations. The multi-column parcel model captures readily the cold pool-induced upscale growth feature. It simulates smaller mesoscale clusters over the central U.S. under global warming due to gust front slowdown and subsidence strength enhancement. The model should be a useful tool for investigating the impact of global warming on MCS at mid-latitudes and providing useful guidelines to improve GCM simulations.

This presentation shows how Infra-Red airborne observation can be used to support this goal. Using experimental fire of several hectares conducted in savanna type vegetation, IR images are collected both from a Middle Infra-Red (MIR) and Long Wave Infra-Red (LWIR) camera operated from hovering helicopter. Images are then postprocessed including orthorectification of images time series and fire front segmentation. Finally, fire behaviors metrics are extracted. Maps of fire intensity, Rate of Spread and Fire Radiative Power (FRP) at 1m spatial resolution and 1Hz are presented for 4 experimental burns ranging from 4 to 8 ha. Using this fire behavior metrics and assumption on radiative/convective fraction, convective heat released are computed at a resolution of 2m. Using the so-called burner method that we implement in the MesoNH-ForeFire model, the plume dynamics is simulated over the duration of the whole fire progression. Such an approach can provide reference test cases for more complex coupled fire-atmosphere simulation. First sensitivity study on the effect of the cooling area on the plume dynamics is then discussed. Finally, the presentation shows recent work on radiative transfer simulation in the context of fire scene based on the DART model. This supports an effort to develop an end-to-end simulation strategy capable of linking fire simulated scene and direct observable such as IR images. Using FDS simulation of grass land fire coupled with DART, we simulate synthetic IR ground and airborne MIR images. This development aims at better understanding active fire monitoring, in particular the effect of flames and plume geometry on the FRP computation. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (Speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Ilissa Ocko TITLE: Climate consequences of a hydrogen economy: from science to action ABSTRACT: This seminar will focus on recently published research on the warming effects of hydrogen emissions from energy infrastructure, and put the work in the context of taking the scientific insights and turning them into the required actions to mitigate these budding climate risks. Hydrogen is considered a key strategy to decarbonize the global economy. Governments and industry are therefore moving ahead with efforts to increase deployment of hydrogen technologies, infrastructure, and applications at an unprecedented pace, including USD billions in national incentives and direct investments. However, while zero- and low-carbon hydrogen hold great promise to help solve some of the world's most pressing energy challenges, hydrogen is also an indirect greenhouse gas whose warming impact is both widely overlooked and underestimated. Furthermore, there is virtually no empirical data on how much hydrogen is emitted from infrastructure, with reports that both operational and fugitive emissions are pervasive across all components of the value chain. Therefore, scientists at Environmental Defense Fund are working to advance scientific understanding of the climate implications of hydrogen?s warming effects, and partnering with policy, business, and communication expert colleagues to translate the findings into tangible actions for policy makers and business leaders. Scientific findings include the result that hydrogen emissions can cause far more warming than widely perceived; thus, attention is warranted to minimize emissions. Environmental Defense Fund?s cross-disciplinary team has therefore met with hundreds of stakeholders across the globe ? from the U.S. Department of Energy to the European Commission to major companies like Shell and General Motors ? with numerous success stories (and myriad lessons learned along the way) wherein hydrogen initiatives are now, for the first time, including the climate risks of hydrogen emissions. At the same time, Environmental Defense Fund scientists are working with a company that has built a first-of-its-kind sensor capable of detecting small emissions of hydrogen, and developing plans to start taking the first-ever measurements of total hydrogen emissions across the value chain. Overall, this seminar will offer insights into the process of turning science into action, and also shed light on what it is like to be a scientist at an advocacy organization. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (Speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Ilissa Ocko TITLE: Climate consequences of a hydrogen economy: from science to action ABSTRACT: This seminar will focus on recently published research on the warming effects of hydrogen emissions from energy infrastructure, and put the work in the context of taking the scientific insights and turning them into the required actions to mitigate these budding climate risks. Hydrogen is considered a key strategy to decarbonize the global economy. Governments and industry are therefore moving ahead with efforts to increase deployment of hydrogen technologies, infrastructure, and applications at an unprecedented pace, including USD billions in national incentives and direct investments. However, while zero- and low-carbon hydrogen hold great promise to help solve some of the world's most pressing energy challenges, hydrogen is also an indirect greenhouse gas whose warming impact is both widely overlooked and underestimated. Furthermore, there is virtually no empirical data on how much hydrogen is emitted from infrastructure, with reports that both operational and fugitive emissions are pervasive across all components of the value chain. Therefore, scientists at Environmental Defense Fund are working to advance scientific understanding of the climate implications of hydrogen?s warming effects, and partnering with policy, business, and communication expert colleagues to translate the findings into tangible actions for policy makers and business leaders. Scientific findings include the result that hydrogen emissions can cause far more warming than widely perceived; thus, attention is warranted to minimize emissions. Environmental Defense Fund?s cross-disciplinary team has therefore met with hundreds of stakeholders across the globe ? from the U.S. Department of Energy to the European Commission to major companies like Shell and General Motors ? with numerous success stories (and myriad lessons learned along the way) wherein hydrogen initiatives are now, for the first time, including the climate risks of hydrogen emissions. At the same time, Environmental Defense Fund scientists are working with a company that has built a first-of-its-kind sensor capable of detecting small emissions of hydrogen, and developing plans to start taking the first-ever measurements of total hydrogen emissions across the value chain. Overall, this seminar will offer insights into the process of turning science into action, and also shed light on what it is like to be a scientist at an advocacy organization. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Date: April 28th Time: 3pm Location: EOA 1050 Speaker: Dr. Matthew Saltzman from The Ohio State University Title: What can the carbon isotopic composition of ancient shallow water carbonates tell us? New insights from calcium isotopes Abstract: The carbon isotopic composition of marine carbonate has a long history of usage as a proxy for the global carbon cycle. Because pelagic carbonate is not widely available in pre-Mesozoic times, carbon isotopes must be measured in shallow water carbonates. Global changes in carbon isotopes of shallow water carbonates are unambiguously identified, but links to carbon cycle drivers remain controversial. The roles of early marine diagenesis and carbonate mineralogy (aragonite versus calcite) in carbon isotope excursions have been challenging to tease apart from global C cycling, and recent developments in calcium isotope measurements offers a new way to look at these old questions. Our recent work pairing C isotopes with and Ca isotopes and elemental concentrations (particularly Sr) indicates that diagenesis and changes in primary mineralogy cannot explain positive carbon isotope excursions in two Paleozoic intervals including the middle Ordovician (Darriwilian) and early Mississippian (Tournaisian). This suggests that C isotope excursions in shallow water carbonates are best explained in terms of a combination of global and local C cycling. Dr. Seth A.

Upwelling favorable southwesterly winds in the summer off the coasts of Oman and Yemen force cold waters to the surface, which is often advected offshore in the form of cold filaments. Filaments are significant as sources of both transported nutrients and biomass to open waters as well as important conduits for transfer of cold and fresh water from the coasts to the open Arabian Sea. The filament features are also associated with strong sea surface temperature gradients and surface currents, which can affect the wind stress patterns associated with the filaments. An overview of these features and the proposed air-sea feedbacks affecting filament development is presented, leading into the outstanding research questions and the proposed approaches for answering these questions.

ABSI Modeling Hydrographic Modeling Update By Xu Chen and Steve Morey Description: We have configured a high-resolution hydrodynamic model for Apalachicola Bay, FL and implemented an oyster larvae model to study the transport of oyster larvae from spawning areas to suitable juvenile habitat (settlement zones) in the bay. As one of the most ecologically diverse areas in the southeastern United States, Apalachicola Bay has also been a central economic pillar of the region with its oyster production industry. The salinity field in Apalachicola Bay has been found to be closely related to the oyster population dynamics. The model results forced by observed river discharge are compared with observations of water level, temperature, and salinity, to verify the simulation?s accuracy. However, we found when the river discharge is low, there is a significant salinity bias between the model and the observation. In this study we proposed and tested the approaches to eliminate the salinity bias. The oyster model is also improved by applying an updated mortality rate. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Global changes in carbon isotopes of shallow water carbonates are unambiguously identified, but links to carbon cycle drivers remain controversial. The roles of early marine diagenesis and carbonate mineralogy (aragonite versus calcite) in carbon isotope excursions have been challenging to tease apart from global C cycling, and recent developments in calcium isotope measurements offers a new way to look at these old questions. Our recent work pairing C isotopes with and Ca isotopes and elemental concentrations (particularly Sr) indicates that diagenesis and changes in primary mineralogy cannot explain positive carbon isotope excursions in two Paleozoic intervals including the middle Ordovician (Darriwilian) and early Mississippian (Tournaisian). This suggests that C isotope excursions in shallow water carbonates are best explained in terms of a combination of global and local C cycling. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
