  • Why Harvard Should Care About the Arctic: Community Networking Breakfast

    Littauer Building Malkin Penthouse 79 JFK St, Cambridge, MA

    The Arctic is warming four times faster than the global average, with impacts that extend far beyond the region. Connect with Arctic researchers from across Harvard at a networking breakfast hosted by the Belfer Center’s Arctic Initiative.

    Over coffee and bagels, you’ll have a chance to give a lightning presentation to share your work and make a case for why Harvard should engage more deeply with the Arctic. You’ll also hear from members of the Arctic Initiative on climate change, conservation, health, community resilience, and geopolitics.

    If you’re curious about the Arctic, come listen and learn how changes in the region may affect your work - and how you can help shape a resilient, cooperative, and peaceful future for the region.

    This session is open to Harvard University ID holders. Registration required.

  • Uncertainties in Processes for Stratospheric Aerosol Injection: Why Volcanoes Aren’t Enough and the Need for Field Experiments

    HUCE Seminar Room 440 26 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is the idea that aerosol precursors could be released into the stratosphere, where the resulting aerosols would linger and reflect incoming solar radiation, counteracting some fraction of anthropogenic warming. We know SAI would work because of volcanoes: when a volcanic eruption deposits SO2 into the stratosphere, it oxidizes to H2SO4, which forms reflective sulfate aerosols, cooling the planet. Volcanic eruptions are used to validate or tune aerosols in climate models, but the processes in an SO2 plume injected from an aircraft differ from those in a volcanic plume in important ways. Dr. Marianna Linz, Head of Research for Reflective, will walk through these differences in processes, summarize what we know and do not know about them, show which ones matter the most for aerosol evolution, and discuss how we can make progress on understanding those critical uncertainties. She will highlight those where we will need a field experiment to understand the implications of the interactions between processes and describe a hypothetical experiment. By focusing on resolving uncertainties at the process level, she argues that we can design these modest experiments with clear scientific questions and observing strategies structured to answer those questions.
