GC51O:
Causes, Consequences, and Predictability of Polar Change Posters
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 57666
Session Description:
The polar regions have experienced some of the most dramatic changes currently occurring anywhere on Earth. Historical Earth System model (ESM) reconstructions are in broad agreement with these changes, however gaps remain in understanding and model representation of drivers of change in the polar systems and their impacts on lower latitudes. Reasons for that include sparseness of observations and challenges in understanding and representing critical processes and feedbacks in ESMs. The IARPC Arctic Science Plan is an example of an integrative approach for necessary coordination of regional observations and model improvements required to increase fidelity and predictive capability of future changes for decision making.
We solicit presentations that advance understanding of the amplified response of high-latitude systems to environmental change, and its global impacts. We are particularly interested in studies that synthesize modeling and observational approaches, while focusing on high-latitude processes and feedbacks, as well as polar - midlatitude linkages.
