On Thursday, October 3, at 2:00 pm MT, join NSF NCAR’s Mesoscale and Microscale Meteorology (MMM) department for a seminar entitled “Subseasonal and Climate Variability of Tropical Cyclones in Idealized Convection-Permitting Simulations.”

In this seminar, Rosimar Rios-Berrios of NSF NCAR will address some unanswered questions about tropical cyclones, including: What are the precise mechanisms that allow tropical cyclones to form in clusters within a given hurricane season? Should we expect more and stronger  tropical cyclones in light of our warming oceans? Dr. Rios-Berrios will address these questions using aquaplanet simulations—novel idealized numerical experiments with a global model—which shed new light on an uptick in tropical cyclogenesis.

This seminar will be hybrid: you may attend in-person or watch the live webcast. Participants watching the webcasts may ask questions during the seminar via Slido.

If attending in-person, you can also join colleagues for refreshments starting at 1:45 pm, and for informal discussion and refreshments after the seminar until 3:30 pm. The event will take place in the NCAR-Foothills Laboratory at 3450 Mitchell Lane, room FL-1022, Large Auditorium.
