Revisiting the Impact of Sea Salt on Climate Sensitivity

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020
Recent laboratory and field studies point to an increase of sea salt aerosol (SSA) emissions with temperature, suggesting that SSA may lower climate sensitivity.

Consequences of changes in vegetation and snow cover for climate feedbacks in Alaska and northwest Canada

Environmental Research Letters, 2016
Changes in vegetation and snow cover may lead to feedbacks to climate through changes in surface albedo and energy fluxes between the land and atmosphere.

Climate change and the permafrost carbon feedback

Nature, 2015
Large quantities of organic carbon are stored in frozen soils (permafrost) within Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. A warming climate can induce environmental changes that accelerate the microbial breakdown of organic carbon and the release of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane.

Mutual Adaptation and Influence: Review of Latent Dynamics Models in Human–Robot Interaction

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots are becoming better teammates by learning hidden patterns in how people act. This review covers how state‐of‐the‐art approaches leverage these patterns to help robots not only react but also anticipate and guide cooperation. Here, we synthesize a unifying framework for these approaches, classify and review existing works, and highlight key ...

The representation of climate impacts in the FRIDAv2.1 Integrated Assessment Model [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
Feedbacks from the climate to other components of the coupled human-Earth system are expected to strongly influence the co-evolution of human society and its environment. Representing these feedback loops between climate and society, via the Earth system'

Investigating the impact of cloud-radiative feedbacks on tropical precipitation extremes

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2021
Although societally important, extreme precipitation is difficult to represent in climate models. This study shows one robust aspect of extreme precipitation across models: extreme precipitation over tropical oceans is strengthened through a positive ...
