PhD. student, Rachel Chimuka, gave a talk titled “Carbon Xchange: A Climate Rap Battle” at the Art & Ale Nerd Nite organized by the Museum of North Vancouver (MONOVA).
PhD. student, Rachel Chimuka, presented her research at the Workshop on Assessing TCRE and ZEC held in Bristol, UK. The goal of the workshop was to assemble current knowledge on Transient Climate Response to cumulative carbon Emissions (TCRE) and Zero Emissions Commitment (ZEC) in the context of carbon budgets and to create a plan to…
M.Sc. student, Christine Leclerc, will join the World Climate Research Programme’s Fresh Eyes on CMIP initiative as part of the Data Analysis team. She and over 100 international colleagues are part of a new working group integrating the voices of early career researchers (ECRs), scientists and practitioners in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP). Fresh…
