08:30-10:00 (CEST) at Berlin
As part of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) conference, the OCEAN:ICE team is organizing a breakout session on Friday, July 14th, 2023 at 08:30 to 10:00 (CEST) in room R2.
OCEAN:ICE interactions – Ice sheet impacts on ocean circulation and climate feedbacks JP03/JP04 Breakout Discussion Session
The IACS/IAPSO/IASPEI inter-association symposia sessions JP03 (Physical and Biogeochemical Ocean and Ice Processes in the Southern Ocean: Observations, State Estimation and Modeling) and JP04 (Ice Sheet-Ocean Interactions: Challenges and Insights From Theory, Observations and Modelling) present a cross cutting examination of the Southern Ocean’s interaction with the Antarctic Ice Sheet and associated processes. A breakout session has been organised in order to facilitate a more in depth discussion of the science presented in these sessions, and to take advantage of the congregation of many experts in the field. This will be hosted and moderated by the convenors of these sessions, with the support of the OCEAN:ICE Horizon Europe Project. The hoped for outcome of the session will be a coalescence of the big challenges facing the field right now, and what is needed in terms of observations, modelling and theory to address them.
