Seasonal prediction and possible causes of sudden losses of sea-ice in the Weddell Sea in recent years based on potential oceanic and atmospheric factors

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
The seasonal prediction of sea-ice concentration (SIC), especially sudden loss events, is always challenging. Weddell Sea SIC experienced two unprecedented decline events, falling from 2.21% in the austral winter of 2015 to 0.02% in the austral summer of

Cooperation on Climate-Change Mitigation [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
Abstract We analyze conditions under which it is possible to achieve efficient mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions with a self-enforcing international agreement in which all countries find it in their self-interest to abide by the agreement. We model the choice of emissions by countries as a dynamic game.
