Another notable and highly original contribution is his transition zone water filter concept developed with Shun Karato, in which water and other volatiles circulate independently of the major solid constituents and concentrate in the mantle transition zone. In recent years, Bercovici has also taken key leadership roles in the problem of climate change, as deputy and co-director of the Yale Climate & Energy Institute from 2009-2015 and now co-director of the Yale Center for Natural Carbon.

The first selected location was the Jungfraujoch station in the hearth of the Alps (ca. 3500 m asl). The outcome of this study was astounding: even in the free troposphere in the middle of the Alps new particle formation can take place with almost solely organic compounds. These results have been acknowledged by being placed on the Science cover of the 27th of May 2016.
Home / Jobs / 2 Year Postdoctoral Project Researcher In Seismic Inversion
Employment requirements: The successful applicant will have expertise in seismic data inversion and the application of probabilistic approaches, complemented by a solid background in rock physics. Programming skills are required and experience with seismic data in tight and fractured formations are desirable. The applicant must be fluent in spoken and written English.

The implications of his work have been felt in the solid earth sciences in answering questions of the stability of phases in the deep earth. Further, his development of new techniques for extracting thermochemical data from experiments have been astonishingly successful.
Home / News / Press releases / Emissions could add 38 centimetres to 2100 sea level rise
The study is one of many efforts in which scientists are involved in projecting the impact of a warming climate on melting ice sheets, understanding its causes, and tracking sea level rise. “One of the biggest uncertainties when it comes to how much sea level will rise in the future is how much the ice sheets will contribute,” said project leader and ice scientist Sophie Nowicki, now at the University at Buffalo and formerly at NASA Goddard.

Chair: Linda Luquot The dynamics associated with flow and transport scenarios in porous and fractured media are subtle and ubiquitously complex. They involve a very wide range of physical, chemical and biological processes and span an astonishingly broad range of spatial and temporal scales. Addressing heterogeneity in all its manifestations is a key challenge in this framework.

Her research focusses on the representation of Arctic mixed-phase clouds in the ECMWF model IFS, which includes model evaluation based on (remote sensing) observations and sensitivity tests in single-column and full global model runs, with the goal of improving cloud representation and finally surface radiation in the model.
