Quiz the University of Reading experts: Climate change fundamentals
Event Information
About this Event
Do you have a burning question on climate change or on how climate affects our lives in Reading and the UK? As part of the Reading Climate Festival, you have a unique opportunity to hear about the exciting and vital climate research going on at the University of Reading and to talk to the experts about their work.
Over three nights during the Festival, we will be running ‘Quiz the Experts’ sessions between 8 and 9pm. Each night has a different theme, covering a different aspect of climate science. All welcome.
Climate Change Fundamentals
Our climate is an immensely complex system, involving interactions between physical processes from the scale of molecules to the scale of our whole planet. Making sense of what is happening involves applying fundamental concepts from physics, chemistry and mathematics to models and observations of our planet. Come to this event if you want to discuss the fundamental processes driving climate change and how these link to how humans are changing the atmosphere.
