Addressing climate change requires understanding of the interconnectedness between all parts of the Earth’s system – climate system (ocean, atmosphere, land), nature and people. The thirteenth meeting of the research dialogue explored some of the latest knowledge on climate system dynamics, the role of nature, and building understand of climate change impacts and risks and implications for decision making. The meeting explored two themes:
Theme 1 (1 June) Climate system dynamics and modelling: New knowledge and its implications for decision making.
Theme 2 (2 June) Resilience for and by nature: Building knowledge and understanding to weave the protection and restoration of nature into decision making on mitigation and adaptation
The meeting consisted of dialogue and poster sessions which took place over two days on 01-02 June 2021.
Moderated dialogue sessions took place at 17:30-19:30 each day. Recordings of each day are linked in the sidebar.
Poster sessions took place at 16:30-17:30 each day via a virtual platform. The posters are available to view below.
Day 1, 01 June 2021 - Theme 1: Climate system dynamics and modelling: New knowledge and its implications for decision making
Day 2, 02 June 2021 - Theme 2: Resilience for and by nature: Building knowledge and understanding to weave the protection and restoration of nature into decision making on mitigation and adaptation
