International team of climate researchers reconstructs global cooling in the reign of the Roman emperor Justinian. Ice-cores and data about sulfate flux at Greenland and Artica reveils the pasts climate disasters. Their research was presented at EGU 2016; Vienna recently.
Medal winners, talks and poster presentations are found here (pdf).
The ExoMars2016 probe was launched into space Monday March 14. Stephanie Wernet from the CEED Centre and GEO, UiO has been one of those finding a landing site for the rover in the mission. The probe will, if everything works after the plan, arrive Mars in October this year.
Fredag 11. mars 2016 er det nøyaktig 5 år siden det store jordskjelvet utenfor kysten av Japan i 2011. I spalten "Forskningsfronten" i Morgenbladet skriver Henrik H. Svensen (CEED og Institutt for geofag) om katastrofen som tok livet av 19 000 mennesker, og der opprydningsarbeidet og sikring av et atomkraftverk fortsatt pågår.
To kick-off the newly established collaborative project on “Climate, Volcanism, and Tectonics” between the Centre for Earth Evolution and Dynamics and the paleoclimate modeling group at the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research we wish to invite to a joint workshop at Geilo. The main aim will be to discuss the potential role of bathymetry on ocean circulation in the causes and nature of extreme climates of the geologic past, and compare these to other possible forcing mechanism such as volcanism.
CEED researchers contributes with an article in the most recent copy of Meta magazine.
