He was a lead author of the sea-level chapter of the latest UN climate report (IPCC-AR5). His research at the Potsdam Institute of Climate Impact Research focuses on the tipping of systems. Prof Levermann has published scientific articles for example on the Antarctic ice sheet, fracture dynamics, ocean circulation, monsoon rainfall and the future evolution of the global sea level. Since 2012 he also leads the research on global adaptation strategies at the Potsdam Institute, developing a dynamic model of economic damage propagation for the global production- and supply network. Anders Levermann advises government representatives, members of parliament, political parties as well as economic stakeholders and journalists with respect to climate change issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"presented-by\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Presented by:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\/2015\/evolving-understanding-of-climate-change-and-sea-level-rise-and-its-perception-by-policy-makers-a-talk-by-german-climate-scientist-and-physics-prof-anders-levermann\/\">A talk with German Climate Scientist and Physics Prof. Anders Levermann<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/fass\">Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carleton University and the German Embassy Present: \u201cEvolving understanding of climate change and sea level rise and its perception by policy makers\u201d by Professor Anders Levermann Wednesday, October 14, 2015, 11:00 am \u20131:00 pm 5110 Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Building Snacks will follow the lecture and discussion Anders Levermann is a climate scientist and physics professor [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18429,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18403","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fass-news"],"acf":{"cu_post_thumbnail":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18403","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18403"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18403\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31936,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18403\/revisions\/31936"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18429"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18403"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18403"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/geography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18403"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
