Climate Change talk on Wednesday 14th July 2010
Climate Change During the Last 10,000 Years: Reconstructions and Uncertainties
Professor Heinz Wanner, University of Bonn; Professor John Haslett, Trinity College, Dublin; Professor Gabriele Hegerl, Chair of Climate System Science,School of GeoSciences, University of Edinburgh
Climate has changed substantially since the last Ice Age. Heinz Wanner will present the changes that have been deduced, and how these changes can be inferred from natural archives of past climate change. This indirect evidence records climate changes and other influences, and hence estimates of past climate change are uncertain. John Haslett will explain how this uncertainty can be explored and quantified. Each speaker will talk for 20 minutes, followed by a panel discussion, including Gabriele Hegerl, and audience questions.
This event is organised by ICMS in association with the RSE and further supported by NCAS,SAGES and the Centre for earth System Dynamics, Edinburgh University
Open to all and free to attend – registration required
