SAGES Theme 3: Atmosphere, Oceans & Climate
Original Proposal: three overarching questions:
• (i) What are the mechanisms and drivers of abrupt regional and global climate change?
• (ii) In the context of future global climate change, how can we predict the manifestations and impacts of such change at regional level?
• (iii) What is the climatological and environmental significance of variability in transport of warm and saline Atlantic Water to NW Europe and Scandinavia?

SAGES Theme 3: Atmosphere, Oceans & Climate
Future Opportunities:1. Strengthen interactions in SAGES, e.g.,
– oceanography-climate modelling-glaciology(example: Simon Tett and Toby Sherwin UK NERC RAPID bid)
– climate dynamics/modelling-extreme events-societal impacts (Society)
– palaeoclimate-climate dynamics/modelling– marine biogeochemical cycles-terrestrial carbon
cycle-climate (Theme 2)– climate-landscape interactions (Theme 1; CESD)

SAGES Theme 3: Atmosphere, Oceans & Climate
2. Develop relationships beyond SAGES:– Potential links to Marine Science Scotland
pooling initiative– Possible engagement with DIFD’s new Climate
Change and Development initiatives– Interaction with NERC’s Thematic Programmes
3. Consider opportunities for a SAGES II

SAGES Theme 3: Atmosphere, Oceans & Climate
Mechanisms:• THEME 3 Sponsored Meetings:
– Annual Theme meeting– Focussed workshops to develop collaborations and
proposals; potential for co-sponsoring with other Themes and the Society and CESD integrative initiatives
– Modest facilitation budget (to be approved)
• Contributions to SAGES News
• Other ideas
