Visit by Chad M. Baum, Stefano Decesari, and Manuel Dall'Osto

We welcomed Chad M. Baum, Department of Business Development and Technology, Aarhus University, to our center just before Easter for an interesting seminar on public perceptions of geoengineering.

Chad’s talk offered a valuable perspective that differs from how we usually approach atmospheric research. Geoengineering options, potentials and limitations are increasingly discussed, and by focusing on how geoengineering is understood, debated, and perceived beyond the scientific community, the seminar highlighted an important dimension of scientific work: Understanding the societal context of these discussions is important for responsible and impactful research.

On the same day, we had the pleasure of hosting two other colleagues:

🔹Stefano Decesari, Italian National Research Council – Institute of Atmospheric Sciences and Climate, Italy

🔹Manuel Dall'Osto, Institut de Ciències del Mar, Spain

A big thank you to all our visitors for engaging discussions and for bringing new angles into our ongoing conversations about the atmosphere, clouds, and climate.
