Welcome, workshop outline, brief overview of Phase 4, including outline of existing databases that we can draw on & their features
Insights from the previous Hydro2k effort. This seminar will act as a ‘kick-off’ for the meeting, outlining challenges/successes/general thoughts from the last time a global hydroclimate synthesis was attempted
Present upcoming Holocene hydroclimate proxy database & reconstruction. Insights from collation of this dataset, and how he went about combining information from the various proxies.
Insights from the development and creation of Iso2k, a multi-proxy database with all the metadata required for analysis across different proxy and archive types
paleoproxies, PSMs, and models, including
- data-model gaps
- temperature to precipitation correlations
- model biases
- new directions (e.g. machine learning)
Update on next PHYDA version, metadata required to assimilate hydroclimate data, what data types are currently feasible for DA, what data types may become feasible, and how exactly integrations happen
Intro to focus topics (NAO / ENSO / Southern latitudes) & open discussion on big picture hydroclimate questions
Report & discuss conclusions from breakout discussions; discuss who is going to do what going forward (i.e., plans for future work)
Steering committee / everybody interested to
lead/support such an effort
(outcome from the last workshop in Heidelberg concerning local and global variability in models and proxy data )
Sloan Coats: Hydroclimate model-(paleo)data comparisons from gridded fields to single timeseries: Challenges and opportunities
Luke Parson: Hydroclimatic Variance in Climate Model Simulations and Paleoclimate Records of the Last Millennium
(each 20min Talk + 10min Discussion)
Organizers: Alyssa Atwood, Matt Jones
Main signals from
1.) paleo-observations
2.) complex models
3.) physics
20min Talk + 10min Discussion
possibility to readjust the groups (if somebody wants to switch or some expert is needed)
