Bitz, Cecilia
Organization(s):
University of Washington Research interests include
- The role of sea ice in the climate system and high-latitude climate and climate change.
- Abrupt climate change. I am testing the hypothesis that the mean climate state and, in particular, the sea ice plays a major role in past climate change.
- Coupled biological-climate systems. I am a co-investigator on the Kuril Biocomplexity Project.
-
Global coupled climate modeling. I am part of a the PetaApps team who has run the CCSM4 at very high resolution. Check out our animations of our century long control at 1/10 degree sea ice and ocean. I use the Community Earth System Model. I also have a project to model the Okhotsk Sea.
