Multi-Sector Dynamics: Geophysical Constraints of Climate Solutions
Session ID#: 251012
Session Description:
What are the key geophysical constraints of adapting to and mitigating climate change? This session will highlight interdisciplinary research on geophysical limits of adaptation and mitigation solutions to address climate change in civil infrastructure systems. This session will include recent research on climate resilient infrastructure solutions and geophysical energy reservoirs and flows that might be converted using near-zero emissions technologies for improving human welfare. We encourage discussion of limitations to proposed climate solutions, prominent technological opportunities, and unintended consequences if deployed at scale. This session will focus on the intersection of civil infrastructure systems and environmental, geophysical, and climate sciences.
