SUMMARY:Uncertain Action\, Uncertain Impacts: Selecting Climate Change Scenarios for Adaptation Planning
DESCRIPTION:Date: February 29\, 2024 | Register Here: https://bit.ly/3tCXw2z \nTime: 10-11am Pacific / 1-2pm Eastern / 2-3pm Atlantic / 2:30-3:30pm NL  \nCost / Platform: Free\, online (Zoom) \nSpeaker Bios \nDescription: Climate change projections provide valuable guidance for adaptation planning. However\, their effective use requires consideration of uncertainty inherent in projections in the context of their particular vulnerabilities and tolerance for risk. Although this uncertainty has multiple sources\, the primary means that relevant parties have to engage with uncertainty is by comparing climate scenarios. Deciding which scenarios warrant consideration is proving increasingly contentious; consequently\, climate science communicators\, service providers\, and related government offices may face conflicting recommendations regarding scenario choices\, shaping practices of climate risk assessment and (ultimately) adaptation actions. The panelists will delve into these challenges and concerns\, while considering how climate scenarios have been designed\, their value and limitations\, and their potential to inform adaptation planning. \nPanelists: \nJoe Daraio\, Associate Professor\, P.Eng.\, Department of Civil Engineering\, Memorial University of Newfoundland\nSabine Dietz\, PHD\, Executive Director\, CLIMAtlantic\nVanessa Schweizer\, Associate Professor\, Department of Knowledge Integration\, University of Waterloo\nChristian Seiler\, Assistant Professor\, School of Environmental Studies\, Arts and Sciences\, Queen’s University \nModerator: Joel Finnis\, Memorial University of Newfoundland

SUMMARY:Webinar: Thinking the unthinkable: Preparing for climate change at the coast
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 25\, 2024 9:30 am PST / 2:00 pm NST  / 5:30 pm GMT \nThe goal of this webinar is to provide insights from the English coastline (especially in the Southeast)\, and hopefully generate comparative discussions with the Canadian perspective. The webinar will consider climate change adaptation at the coast in England from a planning perspective. Planning is one of our principal tools for shaping human interactions with our surroundings in socio-ecological systems. In England\, as with other coastal countries\, states\, or provinces\, this comes with a set of unique challenges\, especially as sea levels rise and storms become more frequent and intense. Firstly\, around 45.6% of the English coastline is protected by coastal defences (walls and artificial beaches)\, which can generate a false sense of security. Some areas are in a develop-defend-develop cycle. A rigid planning and flood zone categorisation system can also block innovative thinking by coastal authorities. Nature-based solutions are receiving more backing from national policy\, and being implemented effectively in some areas. However\, the extent to which all of these processes engage the public\, are transparent\, or participatory is up for debate. \nPresenter: \n \nDr. Glen Smith\, a research fellow at the Flood Hazard Research Centre at Middlesex University in England\, is working to better understand the dynamic impacts of climate change adaptation (CCA) strategies at the coast and the governance of these systems. A social scientist with more than 10 years’ experience in studying \nmarine and coastal issues\, he recently completed a Visiting Fellowship with the Ocean Frontier Institute. During this appointment\, he examined approaches to climate change adaptation at the coast in southeast England and in Nova Scotia. He completed his PhD in natural resource management at UiT\, The Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø\, where he focused on marine spatial planning (MSP) in Scotland\, especially on process transparency\, participation\, and power dynamics in the governance of MSP. Dr. Smith has since held postdoctoral positions in Cork\, Ireland\, and in London researching the social elements of climate change adaptation.

SUMMARY:Panel Session: Mixed Media and Crossed Wires: Challenges and Opportunities Presented by Contemporary and Traditional Media for Disaster Preparedness\, Warning\, and Response Communication
DESCRIPTION:When: Thursday\, June 1\, 2023\, 14:00 – 15:30 NDT \nWhat: CMOS Congress / ORCA Scientific Meeting Panel Discussion \nTitle: Mixed Media and Crossed Wires: Challenges and Opportunities Presented by Contemporary and Traditional Media for Disaster Preparedness\, Warning\, and Response Communication  \nLocation: Sheraton Hotel\, St. John’s NL\, Signal \nThe communication of hazard-related information usually begins with the detection of a potential hazard through observation of phenomena. The data are analyzed and/or modeled and meaning or implications are drawn from the results. Depending on the time scale of the anticipated hazard\, this is then communicated in a variety of ways (reports\, sirens\, alerts\, images\, simulation\, maps\, narrative\, graphs\, numerical equations)\, to one or many audiences (same agency\, different agencies\, decision-makers\, public). At each step of the communication process\, the message format and content can be (or may need to be) altered to fit the audience\, channel\, or circumstances. The selection of data or model outcome to communicate\, the communication of uncertainty or probability\, as well as aspects of the message format and content may result in the communication of a meaning different than initially intended or a message that amplifies one aspect but attenuates another. Testing processes and messages with the end-user and obtaining feedback\, is critical\, but may not always occur. Traditional media (radio\, TV\, print or electronic media) and social media play a strong role in hazard information dissemination exchange with both challenges and opportunities for interaction\, multi-directional information flow\, information gathering and dissemination. The panelists will discuss the challenges of maintaining the fidelity of the message meaning for each audience through the multi-step communication process for a variety of coastal hazards such as sea-level rise\, flooding\, extreme weather events\, and tsunamis.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Decadal Prediction at the Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis
DESCRIPTION:April 26\, 2023 – 3:00pm to 4:00pm (Pacific Time) \nRegister Here: https://pacificclimate.org/news-and-events/seminars/decadal-prediction-cccma \nDecadal predictions often employ the same models as long-term climate simulations and projections\, but differ in that they are initialized from observation-based states\, and attempt to predict the combined trajectory of internal climate variations and externally-forced changes\, rather than only representing the latter. \nThis presentation will first review the development of decadal prediction capabilities at CCCma in the context of the initial emergence and rapid development of this field. It than covers associated contributions to international efforts such as CMIP5\, CMIP6\, and the WMO’s annual-to-decadal operations\, together with current scientific issues and the potential for such predictions to inform climate services in Canada. Finally\, a CCCma-led initiative to prepare the international decadal prediction community to respond to the eventuality of a climate-altering volcanic eruption is described. \nBio: \nBill Merryfield is a Research Scientist at ECCC’s Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) in Victoria. For more than 10 years he has led efforts to apply CCCma’s climate and Earth system models to predicting future climate variations and trends on seasonal to decadal time scales\, along with associated science. These efforts have led to CCCma’s models contributing to ECCC’s operational seasonal forecasts\, as well as to multi-model decadal forecasts issued annually by the WMO. He currently serves as co-chair of the World Climate Research Programme’s Working Group on Subseasonal to Interdecadal Prediction\, and as a member of its Decadal Climate Prediction Project panel. \n

SUMMARY:Arctic Science Summit Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Arctic Science Summit Week (ASSW) 2023 will be hosted in Vienna (Austria) from 17 – 24 February 2023. Deadline for abstract submission for the ASSW 2023 Science Symposium “The Arctic in the Anthropocene” (21 – 24 February 2023) is swiftly approaching: submit your abstract by 20 September 2022. \nNever before has the Arctic experienced such a high pressure by human impact either by local environmental disturbances or by global climate change leading to long-term changes and massive challenges to the resistance and resilience of polar ecological systems and Arctic societies. “The Arctic in the Anthropocene” is a quite appropriate theme to focus on the increasing pressure of high latitudes. Several sessions offer space to shed light on short- and long-term changes\, respectively\, on human\, terrestrial\, aquatic or aerial systems. Despite the focus on the Arctic\, contributions on the Antarctic\, aiming at fostering networking and advances on research on both poles\, are accepted and appreciated. \nThe conference will be held in a hybrid format including opportunities for both in-person and online oral and poster presentations.

SUMMARY:Online Presentation: Sea Change in Marine Forecasting & Fishing Safety: Navigating Weather Resources & Relationships in Commercial Fisheries
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nCommercial fish harvesters are one of the primary users of marine forecasts\, and rely heavily on these reports to manage weather hazards in their work at sea. Despite the intrinsic user-producer connection between forecasters and fish harvesters\, direct interaction between these groups remains relatively rare; this simultaneously limits mutual user/producer understanding and opportunities for meaningful co-production of forecast materials. Drawing from a series of qualitative studies of marine forecast production and fishing safety\, we explore aspects of this divide\, and evaluate fisher approaches to assessing and navigating marine risk. Finally\, we present three examples of public meteorological services actively working to build closer relationships with fish harvesters\, either by i) developing new products targeted to specific fisheries; ii) providing greater access to guidance informing marine forecasts; or iii) operationalizing forecaster/fisher interactions. \nPresenter\, Dr. Joel Finnis

SUMMARY:UN Ocean Decade Safe Oceans Lab Satellite Activity: 100% of at-risk communities recognized Tsunami Ready
DESCRIPTION:Session 1: CEST 12:00-13:00 or Session 2: 19:00-20:00 CEST (same workshop is offered twice to accommodate time zone differences). \nREGISTER HERE: https://oceanexpert.org/registerEvent/3420 \nAs part of the 5th Ocean Decade Laboratory (5-7 April) you are invited to join the “100% of at-risk communities recognized as Tsunami Ready” Satellite Activity on 7 April 2022. \nThis side event will offer a virtual forum with local and national leaders who have successfully implemented the Tsunami Ready recognition process. The speakers will present their first-hand testimonials about the importance of tsunami preparedness to protect lives and achieving a safe ocean​​ and discover emerging experiences in implementing Tsunami Ready. \nThe online activity will directly engage a gender- and culturally-diverse group of stakeholders from across various ocean regions. They will share a hands-on perspective on early warning services from different angles: science\, warning dissemination and communications\, and disaster management. \nPlease note that the satellite activity consists of two sessions to be able to cover as many world regions as possible: 7 April 2022 – Session 1 (Europe/Asia/LAC): 12:00-13:00 CEST; Session 2 (Europe/LAC/South Pacific Islands): 19:00-20:00 CEST \nJoin us and be part of the change we need! \n \nIn December 2004\, 227\,8991 people lost their lives and around US$10 billion were estimated as overall economic losses in the 14 countries affected by the 9.1-magnitude Indian Ocean earthquake. In response the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (UNESCO/IOC) along with dozens of partners strengthened its support and catalyzed international cooperation to enable countries to assess their tsunami risk\, implement Tsunami Early Warning Systems (EWS) and educate communities at risk about preparedness measures. \nSince 2001\, that the United States National Weather Service (US NWS) of the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been implementing the recognition programme TsunamiReady® in its states\, territory and commonwealths. This programme was modelled after the US StormReady recognition programme. The goal was that communities recognized as TsunamiReady® would be better prepared to protect life and property through hazard assessment\, mitigation\, preparedness\, planning and warning coordination. \nSince 2015\, the UNESCO/IOC started to build its Tsunami Ready Programme based on the experience of USA\, first in the Caribbean\, where Tsunami Ready Guidelines were developed\, which were then approved by the IOC General Assembly. Subsequently\, in 2016\, UNESCO recognized St. Kitts and Nevis in the Caribbean as Tsunami Ready\, and in 2017\, the communities of Cedeño in Honduras\, Ostional in Costa Rica\, and Savaia in Samoa in the Pacific. The programme grew naturally towards a global Tsunami Ready programme\, with communities recognized in 11 other countries\, and many more to come. \nThis satellite session will offer a virtual get-together forum for local and national leaders that have gone through the Tsunami Ready recognition process and can proudly attest of their work to protect lives making the Ocean safer. They have not been together before.
