[pccgrads] Reminder! PCC Colloquium: Tomorrow! Abby Swann on "Carbon cycle and climate under declining and zero emissions"(Friday, Sep 26 at 3:30pm in JHN 075)

[Miriam Bertram via Pcc_all via pccgrads]

Dear PCC community,

We are excited to announce the start of a new monthly Program on Climate
Change Colloquium series! Please join us for the first PCC Colloquium of
the quarter this Friday, Sep 26 at 3:30pm in Johnson Hall (JHN) 075. Prof.
Abby Swann will present on "Carbon cycle and climate under declining and
zero emissions". This event will be held jointly with the Atmos Colloquium.

Speaker: Prof. Abby Swann (Department of Atmospheric & Climate Science,
Department of Biology)
Title: "Carbon cycle and climate under declining and zero emissions"
Time and location: Friday, Sep 26 at 3:30pm in JHN 075

Abstract: Land carbon sinks are responsible for removing about a quarter of
anthropogenic CO2 emissions and make up approximately half of total global
carbon sinks. Uncertainty in the response of land carbon sinks to climate
are large and dominate the uncertainty in total carbon sinks over the next
century. Understanding the carbon cycle response to net-zero and
net-negative emissions, and particularly the highly uncertain land carbon
cycle response, has important implications for projecting future climate.
As we aim for pathways that reduce emissions and eventually reach net-zero
the Earth system enters a new combination of forcing and climate that has
so far been understudied. In this talk we will explore the climate and
terrestrial carbon cycle response to declining and net-zero emissions.

The PCC Colloquium will rotate to other topics and units in future months.
Up next will be a presentation by Prof. Alex Gagnon (Oceanography) on
Wednesday, October 8 at 3:30pm in Ocean Sciences Building 425 ("Marine
Carbon Dioxide Removal - From Discovery to Impact”). Mark your calendars!
