FranceResearch institute

A joint research unit of the CNRS, Grenoble Alpes University, Grenoble INP and IRD, the Institute of Environmental Geosciences (IGE) is one of the main institute of the Grenoble Observatory of Sciences of the Universe (Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers de Grenoble). The IGE conducts research on the climate and the anthropization of our planet, particularly in regions where societal and environmental issues are most prevalent : the polar regions, the intertropical zone, and mountain regions.

JPI Climate & JPI Oceans Joint Transnational Call on the Next Generation Climate Science in Europe for Oceans

Oceans play a key role in the climate system and are also affected by climate change. As confirmed by the IPCC special report on ocean and cryosphere, ocean dynamics are a major modulator of weather and climate including future trends and extremes. However, there are still uncertainties in the understanding and quantification of key climate-ocean interactions and the ocean’s buffering capacities for absorbing heat and CO2. This joint call aims to address these uncertainties.
