Abstract Ice streams on the Siple Coast, West Antarctica, have a complex history of flow because their basal motion is governed by time‐varying conditions. Although mechanical interaction between ice and till well established, very little known about potential effect regionally scaled water transport in system, which has only recently become apparent. To investigate combined hydrological processes, we developed Hydrology, Till model, coupled to Coulomb‐plastic layer system consisting...

Abstract There is a diverging perception of climate tipping points, abrupt changes and surprises in the scientific community public. While such dynamics have been observed past, e.g., frequent reductions Atlantic meridional overturning circulation during last ice age, or sheet collapses, points might also be possibility an anthropogenically perturbed climate. In this context, high impact—low likelihood events, both physical realm as well ecosystems, will potentially dangerous. Here we argue...

The WCRP Academy is the research training advisory and coordination arm of the World Climate Research Program. It is flagship activity for WCRP´s mission: “to develop, share, apply climate knowledge that contributes to societal well-being” works equip current future scientists with knowledge, skills attributes required tackle world’s most pressing challenging questions.The foundation Academy an online portal connects providers...

The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) envisions a future where actionable climate information is universally accessible, supporting decision makers in preparing for and responding to change. In this perspective, we advocate enhancing links between science decision-making through better more decision-relevant understanding of impacts. proposed framework comprises three pillars: science, impact decision-making, focusing on generating seamless from sub-seasonal, seasonal, decadal century...

Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions are the main driver of climate change, with global warming increasing almost linearly cumulative CO emissions. Hence, future will primarily result from contributions other greenhouse gases (mostly CH 4 and N O) aerosols. Climate projections 21st century, such as those assessed by IPCC, provided comprehensive models, also called Earth System driven scenarios century evolution forcers. While it seems now inevitable that world reach 1.5°C above...

Global climate change is often thought of as a steady and approximately predictable physical response to increasing forcings, which then requires commensurate adaptation. But adaptation has practical, cultural biological limits, may pose unanticipated global hazards, sudden changes or other surprises, societal mitigation responses. We outline strategy for better accommodating these challenges by making science more integrative, in order identify quantify known novel risks even–or...
