12: RISKS AND REWARDS OF SCIENCE COMEDY</a></b><br>
<blockquote>Communication researcher Emily Vraga joins us as co-host
again to discuss science comedy. She explains her research into
how comedy can increase credibility, engagement and reduce
perceived aggression. We also critique a variety of examples of
climate comedy from TV and YouTube.<br>
Contains many video links to climate change humor videos. <br>

Fate of the Southern Weddell Sea Continental Shelf in a Warming
Climate</a></b><br>
Abstract<br>
<blockquote> Warm water of open ocean origin on the continental
shelf of the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas causes the highest
basal melt rates reported for Antarctic ice shelves with severe
consequences for the ice shelf/ice sheet dynamics. Ice shelves
fringing the broad continental shelf in the Weddell and Ross Seas
melt at rates orders of magnitude smaller. However, simulations
using coupled ice-ocean models forced with the atmospheric output
of the HadCM3 SRES-A1B scenario run (CO2 concentration in the
atmosphere reaches 700 ppmv by the year 2100 and stays at that
level for an additional 100 years) show that the circulation in
the southern Weddell Sea changes during the twenty-first century.
Derivatives of Circumpolar Deep Water are directed southward
underneath the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf, warming the cavity and
dramatically increasing basal melting. To find out whether the
open ocean will always continue to power the melting, the authors
extend their simulations, applying twentieth-century atmospheric
forcing, both alone and together with prescribed basal mass flux
at the end of (or during) the SRES-A1B scenario run. The results
identify a tipping point in the southern Weddell Sea: once warm
water flushes the ice shelf cavity a positive meltwater feedback
enhances the shelf circulation and the onshore transport of open
ocean heat. The process is irreversible with a recurrence to
twentieth-century atmospheric forcing and can only be halted
through prescribing a return to twentieth-century basal melt
rates. This finding might have strong implications for the
stability of the Antarctic ice sheet.<br>

Video on "Re-Discovering the Magnificent Carbon Storage
Potential of Wetlands and Peatlands"</a></b><br>
<blockquote>On Thursday, 11 May 2017, the side event "Re-discovering
the magnificent carbon storage potential of wetlands and
peatlands" took place at the Bonn Climate Change Conference,
presented by Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)
and partners. This video by IISD Reporting Services provides an
overview of the event. The event highlighted the carbon storage
potential of tropical wetlands and peatlands, highlighting
research published in two newly launched reports to assist climate
policy making.<br>
Produced by Tasha Goldberg and filmed/edited by Chege Herman
Njoroge.<br>
