CriticalEarth ESR Workshop 4: “Scaling analysis in the climate system” & Communications Training

Objective: Provide a thorough overview of the scaling results which have been found in the climate system and the possible mechanisms behind this behaviour.

Specific Themes: origins of scaling, power laws, multifractal scaling

Relevance: Guarantees that the ESRs have adequate knowledge of this new paradigm of climate variability and be able to connect the results to clear climate dynamical processes.

The programme will include the following:

• Arrival Dinner – (Sunday evening, location TBC).
• ESR workshop 4 (EW4)  “Scaling analysis in the climate system” (2 days) (Monday-Tuesday 4^th and 5^th December 2023)
• David Trads –Communications Workshop (0.5 day) (Wednesday morning 6^th December)
• Social Activities/Excursion in local area (0.5 day) (Wednesday afternoon 6^th December)

There will be a linked research workshop 3 (W3) “Early warning signals for critical transitions” (2 days) on Thurs-Friday 7^th and 8^th December; we will offer bus transfer to Exeter Thursday morning.
