Are you an early career scientist who would like to share your research on carbon in deltas with the Leaky Deltas community?
The Leaky Deltas scoping workshop will focus on deltaic systems to build a network of modelers, experimentalists, and field scientists working on deltas in this era of unprecedented climate change and other anthropogenic stresses. Despite the importance of deltas and blue carbon ecosystems to the global carbon cycle and coastal communities, land-to-ocean parameterizations in Earth System models are highly simplified and do not mechanistically include many of the processes involved in cycling carbon in these areas. Leaky Deltas aims to bring together a diverse group who are committed to exploring the physical, temporal, and biogeochemical processes that modulate fluxes of carbon to and from global deltas through a series of webinars leading up to a workshop to be held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on March 17-20, 2025. For more information, please visit our website at https://www.us-ocb.org/leaky-deltas-workshop-2025/.
If you would like to share your work in our webinar series, please apply to give a presentation in our January webinar. We seek graduate students and early career scientists (within 4 years of PhD) to give 12-minute talks, with time for questions.
Previous webinars in this series are available on YouTube and include presentations by:
Robert Twilley and Marc Simard
Muriel Bruckner (LSU) and Anastasia Pillouras (PSU)
Bob Aller
Bin Zhao and Thomas Bianchi
