Explore the critical role of oceans in climate change through this Friends of KITP Chalk Talk by Professor Laure Zanna. Delve into ocean physics and its impact on storing and redistributing excess heat from anthropogenic emissions. Examine patterns of sea level rise resulting from heat redistribution and the uncertainties in future regional sea level projections. Discover how combining machine learning with physics can enhance numerical climate simulations and improve climate change projections, including sea level rise patterns. Gain insights from Dr. Zanna's expertise in climate system dynamics, her research on improving climate models through scientific machine learning, and her work with the NSF-NOAA Climate Process Team on Ocean Transport and Eddy Energy.
