Connecting climate science and society: reflections from early and mid-career researchers at the World Climate Research Programme Open Science Conference 2023
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper reflects the discussions of early and mid-career researchers (EMCRs) during the World Climate Research Programme Open Science Conference 2023 EMCRs Symposium, to advance climate knowledge for greater transformative power in society and impact on policy-making. These discussions focused on three key priority challenges: how to produce robust, usable, and used climate information at the local scale; how to address key climate research and knowledge gaps in the Global South; and how EMCRs could support policy-making with climate information. We present here our perspective on these major challenges, possible ways to address them, and what could be the contribution of EMCRs. In addition, we provide recommendations for actions that could be taken at the international and national levels to increase the voice and leadership of Global South researchers and EMCRs in international scientific endeavors. These recommendations might facilitate the integration of new technological tools or innovative approaches, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and foster connections with local communities. This coordinated approach to international, regional and local initiatives will catalyze the process for urgent action on the environmental crisis before us.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
