[CRYOLIST] Coupled modelling in the polar regions - Call for abstracts EGU2023

Dear Cryo-people,


We would like to draw your attention to the cryosphere focused coupling session CR7.2 on

      
during EGU2023 from 23 to 28 April 2023 in Vienna, Austria.

This session is planned as a PICO session in a hybrid format.
Every presenter (both on-site and online) gets 2 min. time to pitch their story to the audience followed by a poster like session in the same area, but on screens where videos etc. can be showed. See for more information here.

The abstract submission deadline is 10 January 2023, 13:00 CET.
You find the abstract below and can submit your abstract here.

We hope to see you at EGU - and in our session,
Konstanze, Rupert, Yoshihiro and Chen
(Haubner, Gladstone, Nakayama, Zhao)


======================
session abstract:
In recent decades, the climate in the polar regions has undergone dramatic changes. Quantifying the individual contributions of Earth system components (cryosphere, ocean, atmosphere, and land) to the observed changes is challenging due to feedback between the components. Examples include (but are not limited to) ice shelf-ocean interactions (through basal melting and cavity geometry evolution) and elevation feedbacks (through surface mass balance). Hence, studies based on individual components of the Earth System have limited capacity to represent all relevant processes. This session aims to provide a platform for sharing coupled modelling experiences incorporating the cryosphere in the polar regions.

Before obtaining scientific outcomes, design decisions must be made in the development of coupled models. Adopting existing coupling technologies or implementing new, concurrent or sequential parallelism, bringing component source codes together or maintaining independence, choosing the level of temporal synchronicity between components operating on different timescales, are all examples of choices to be made.
We solicit both technical and scientific contributions from modelling studies in which feedback and emergent properties between the cryosphere and other Earth System components in polar regions are investigated, better understood, and possibly even quantified. In addition to application of coupled modelling to real world domains, contributions are also invited from idealised studies and intercomparisons, such as the Marine Ice Sheet-Ocean Intercomparison Project (MISOMIP).
