Drought is hitting hard Uruguay and Argentina. Uruguay faces an estimate of 1$ billion in losses for agriculture and livestock sector, and is already struggling with basic drinking water supply. Argentina has lowest harvest of soy and corn in 60 years! #ClimateAction #drought

The #inventWater team was fully represented at last week's #GLEON2022 network meetings. The coordinator, @Rafa_Marce, presented a brief about the @invent_water network and the work that incredible 15 Eary Stage Researchers are doing.

@dee_rastogi While in our study we focus on European domain, I think these findings will apply to certain extent to other domains. Therefore, you may want to consider these pair based (GCM/RCM) discrepancy in complexity as a source of uncertainty in the following studies.

[Sabin Taranu @SabinTaranu]

@dee_rastogi In our recent study (https://t.co/BuHRIH5dDP), we quantified the effects of these discrepancies in model complexity on climate change projections. For example, the fact that a typical RCM don't have time-varying aerosol as its driving GCM can cause a weaker warming by about 0.8K.

[Sabin Taranu @SabinTaranu]

@dee_rastogi In general, RCMs are behind in the representation of certain processes when compared to GCMs. Some examples may be the representation of time-varying aerosols, plant water use efficiency, or ocean coupling. These issues were also mentioned in the IPCC Ch10.

[Sabin Taranu @SabinTaranu]

@dee_rastogi Exciting reading! At some point, you mention that the RCM ensemble project a weaker warming for T95. While I understand that explaining why was outside the scope of the study and would require a different experimental framework, I would like to make a suggestion.

Incredible training in @VUBrussel on Earth System and Water Quality models. Impressed with the powerful tools we can use to run models from local to global scales. We finally run models in an HPC! Thanks to @AnnikaSchlemm @SabinTaranu @WimThiery @AnnGriensven for leading this!

I'm looking for a PhD student interested in human-water systems! Position is well suited for students interested in interdisciplinary research/training. The student in my group who was to work on this project has changed their research focus so the position is open again!

Our 15 Early Stage Researchers identified multiple diversity dimensions that may impact their research projects. They found interesting outcomes related to socio-economic and gender dimensions. Have a look at the details here: https://t.co/Ac6AB1ol90

Led by Lili Xia, our new paper in @NatureFoodJnl provides additional evidence that a nuclear war would cause catastrophic climatic consequences for global food supply, especially in countries that have the largest arsenals. A nuclear war can't be won. https://t.co/tcGHqYfidO
