About:

This workshop wil be part of the ICMS Mathematics for Humanity initiative. The workshop will provide a forum for the development of mathematical thinking applied to climate tipping points and their possible impacts. We will invite a variety of experts across the Mathematical Sciences research spectrum to deliver an assessment of the mechanisms and risks of tipping events in the Earth’s climate and ecosystems under anthropogenic forcing scenarios. This will help to understand the associated impacts, including implications for mitigation and adaptation. The proposed workshop aims to give a forum for discussion of state-of-the art developments in and applications of mathematical sciences to tipping-aware risk assessments as well as adaptation and mitigation strategies. It also aims to bring open questions of relevance to the attention of researchers in the mathematical sciences.  

There will be a linked three-day training course the week before the workshop: https://www.icms.org.uk/IntroductionClimateTippingPoints

Information on participation to follow in due course.
