Call for proposals for 2 two-year synthesis science projects on the topics of overshoot and societal tipping processes. The Belgian Climate Centre seeks to fund two synthesis science projects led by interdisciplinary teams that apply innovative approaches, as well as state-of-the art compilation and analysis techniques to existing data sets and information, with the aim to advance evidence-based decision making in the Belgian public and private sectors. We invite proposals that focus on the research topics of #overshoot and societal #tipping #processes. Synthesis science projects can be focused on Belgium, on other regions with broad expertise (e.g., Congo Basin, Antarctica), or on continental (e.g., EU) or global scale. To foster interdisciplinary research collaboration on these topics, this call involves the creation of two Working Groups of up to 20 scientists and stakeholders, each lead by a team of up to 4 Principal Investigators (PIs). For each topic, one Working Group will be supported. This includes support for multiple meetings at the Belgian Climate Centre, as well as a post-doctoral fellowship for one early-career Working Group member. The proposal submission process consists of two stages: - All interested PI teams are invited to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) by April 15, 2024. - After evaluation of the LOIs, a selection of PI teams will be invited to submit a full proposal by September 1, 2024. In Fall 2024, two full proposals (one per topic) will be recommended for funding. The call is open to Belgian research institutes and stakeholders only. Proposals will be evaluated by the Scientific Board of the Belgian Climate Centre on their scientific merit, novelty, complementarity and interdisciplinarity of the PI team, transfer of knowledge to stakeholders, and potential for societal impact.

The preprint titled "South Asian Summer Monsoon under Stratospheric Aerosol Intervention" is now available online. It is essential to note that deciding whether to implement solar radiation management (SRM) is one of the most important choices of our time, and it could significantly impact regions that are most vulnerable to climate change. To encourage Global South scientists (specifically from South Asia) to participate in solar radiation modification research, we conducted this study in collaboration with colleagues from the following organizations: NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration; NSF NCAR - The National Center for Atmospheric Research and the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune. The link is provided below. Please take the time to read the article and feel free to provide both suggestions and criticism! Your feedback is appreciated!

Solid solid program for the Year of Open Science Conference. Getting back on the "Year of Open Science" and hot updates on all things OS - Grassroots initiatives, Policy & Compliance, Reforming Research Evaluation, Measuring OS. Basically all the things we have been and are continuously working towards at the Tanenbaum Open Science Institute & The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital), but at the slightly* larger US-Federal scale...

Just in time for my PhD defence in July, my third PhD article is now available #OA at Technology in Society: https://lnkd.in/ePFuwva3. In the article, I examine why local opposition to the Thirty Meter Telescope has sustained momentum. Of my three PhD projects, this one was by far the most instructive and challenging. It has taught me a lot about #positionality, #reflexivity, and #Hawaiʻi. Check it out if you are interested in the local dimension of #BigScience and the relationship between science and society.

It was great to catch up with CDR folks (and "CDR-curious" friends) this past week at #ERW24 and the Yale University symposium. I'm thinking a lot these days about how quickly this new applied earth science path has developed and how many of my paleoclimate/geochemistry colleagues have entered it. Because of this I'm also wondering how the grad school-to-CDR pipeline will shake up earth science academia, how sustainable (career-wise) this new path will continue to be, and how we may be able to rapidly foster CDR/carbon system expertise and awareness from high schoolers up to PhDs. Have others been mulling this?

Looking for a treasure trove of tipping point knowledge? Take a look at this ongoing series on tipping points. The discussion series is a joint activity of Future Earth's global research project, Analysis, Integration and Modelling of the Earth System (AIMES). All previous events are recorded and available to re-watch. So dive into this pool of knowledge about the latest science on tipping points. #complexityscience #tippingpoints
