Title: Reducing Uncertainty Surrounding Climate Change Using Emergent Constraints
Abstract: Many aspects of future climate change remain highly uncertain as different climate models can exhibit large and persistent spreads in their projections. This uncertainty stems from a variety of sources including natural variability, differing emissions pathways, and differences in how models represent key physical processes. Efforts to reduce uncertainty in climate change projections primarily focus on the latter. A popular approach for…

Title: An overview of SOCCOM (Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling): ten years of studying circulation, heat, and carbon in the Southern Ocean
Abstract: The SOCCOM (Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling) program, which started in 2014, seeks to improve global climate understanding and prediction through improved observation and modeling of Southern Ocean processes south of about 30°S. This region is known to be fundamental to climate but had been absurdly undersampled, especially in…
