Anticipating the occurrence and type of critical transitions

Chun-Wei Chang and Chih-hao Hsieh Prof. Chih-hao Hsieh from the Institute of Oceanography and Prof. Chun-Wei Chang from the Institute of Fishery Sciences, NTU lead an international team and develop a novel method that successfully anticipates the occurrence and type of a variety of critical transition events. This study, published in Science Advances (Jan 2023), overcomes the long-lasting challenge in revealing a quantitative threshold as well as distinguishing types of critical transition by early warning signals using empirical data collected in real-world systems. The proposed method also provides a powerful…

Split westerly winds over Europe – A breakthrough by an international project led by Department of Geosciences

Europe, even located at the mid-high latitude at 40-70oN, the autumn and winter are mild and comfortable. Such pleasant weather is regulated by the warm and humid westerly winds from the North Atlantic Ocean. During the 15th to 19th century, Europe experienced the coldest winters over the last ten thousand years, known as the “Little Ice Age” (LIA). The LIA was suggested to be caused by volcanic eruptions and low solar activity. However, the detailed climate pattern in Europe remains unclear.Dr. Hsun-Ming Hu, the first author, and Prof. Chuan-Chou Shen,…
