Impact of regionally increased CO2 concentrations in coupled climate simulations

  • 1. Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research

Description

This poster has been presented at the General Assembly of the EU project APPLICATE which has taken place in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, from the 20th to 23rd of January, 2020. It is a summary of the paper by the same authors (Semmler et al., 2020: Quantifying two-way influences between the Arctic and mid-latitudes through regionally increased CO2 concentrations in coupled climate simulations, doi: 10.1007/s00382-020-05171-z). 

One of the main conclusions is: 

Arctic CO2 forcing shows limited influence on extra-Arctic regions, extra-Arctic CO2 forcing shows strong influence on Arctic including substantial sea ice melting leading to Arctic Amplification.
