2018 Fall AGU: The Climate of the Common Era

June 11, 2018

The Climate of the Common Era has been accepted as a session at the 2018 Fall AGU Meeting.  Join us for another year of broad ranging presentations relating to the climate of the last 2000 years.  This year we are also specifically encouraging abstracts that are relevant to climate policy and management topics.  The abstract of the session is given below and we will provide updates on the timing of the session as they become available.  In the meantime, remember that the abstract submission period is now open and will close on August 1st.  We look forward to seeing your abstracts in the session!

The Climate of the Common Era (PP010)

This session highlights recent work on all aspects of the climate of the Common Era using new proxy records, data syntheses, reconstruction methodologies, proxy system modeling, and paleoclimate model simulations. Contributions that combine several of these areas or that focus on developing improved quantitative estimates of uncertainty are particularly welcome. A focus of this year's session will be on the use of Common-Era data and analyses for policy and management insights. Examples include establishing a baseline for future risk assessments, conservation, and resiliency, or the characterization of past climate-society relationships as frameworks for anticipating and mitigating future impacts.
