Critical Phenomena at the Permafrost-Atmosphere Interface
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore critical phenomena at the permafrost-atmosphere interface in this 41-minute lecture by Ivan Sudakow. Delve into the complex interactions between permafrost and the atmosphere as part of the "Theoretical and Practical Perspectives in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics" program. Gain insights into the multiscale dynamics of Earth's climate system, focusing on the crucial role of permafrost in global climate processes. Examine how energy transfers, turbulent mixing, and instabilities at this interface contribute to our understanding of climate dynamics. Learn about the challenges in observing and modeling these phenomena, and discover how interdisciplinary approaches combining theory, numerical modeling, and observations are advancing our knowledge of geophysical fluid dynamics.
