Magellan³ Workshop: MANI_IN_PASTA MAximising existing and New Information IN PAst circulation STAbility

The community is invited to register for the Magellan³ workshop “MANI_IN_PASTA MAximising existing and New Information IN PAst circulation STAbility”

Aims: defining a clear idea and identifying the writing team for a SPARC proposal to be submitted to the 31/1/2027 deadline to investigate Antarctic bottom water formation and slowdown of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation during past warm periods. The focus will be on extracting the maximum information from existing drilling data from key deep-water formation sites in both hemispheres, with new consistent analytical approaches and machine learning. The expected impact is an increased understanding of hemispheric phase relationships allowing better forecasting of future scenarios in our warming world.

Workshop logistics:

Where: The workshop will be held in Trieste, Italy, with online hybrid participation possible.

When: Monday 11^th May – Wednesday 13th January 2026

Participation at the workshop is free. Icebreaker, breaks and workshop dinner are all provided.
