1st Session of CLIVAR Research Foci on Marine Heatwaves in the Global Ocean

23 July 2023 at ICTP, Trieste, Italy and online

 

Approved by the CLIVAR Scientific Steering Group (SSG) at its 28th session in December 2022, the CLIVAR Research Foci on Marine Heatwaves in the Global Ocean (MHW RF) was kicked off in February 2023 via online meetings. The goal of MHW RF is to achieve a better understanding of MHWs globally, including detection, surface and subsurface characteristics, mechanisms, connection with climate change and biogeochemical extremes, in order to increase preparedness and promote efficient adaptation planning, while contributing to the training of the next generation of scientists and providing input to observational programs. 3 telecons have been organized by the MHW RF during the past six months, and the RF members will have their first face-to-face meeting in Trieste, Italy (with online access available), back-to-back with the ICTP/CLIVAR Summer School on Marine Heatwaves: Global Phenomena with Regional Impacts, which will be organized on 24-29 July 2023 at ICTP. The 1st Session of CLIVAR MHW RF will include individual presentations by RF members, and discussion on future plan of activities to be implemented by the MHW RF.
