Submit your proposals for poster cluster topics and/or side events at the WCRP Open Science Conference (OSC) that will take place in Kigali, Rwanda 23-27 October 2023. A 2-page flyer that provides a brief overview of the Conference can be found here.
Please submit your proposals no later than 30 September 2022.
Abstract submissions and registrations are open for the workshop “Modelling the Climate System at Ultra-High-Resolution: Resolving atmospheric storms, ocean sub-mesoscale eddies, rivers and glaciers”.
A new vacancy notice is available on e-recruitment for a new 2-year fixed term position as Scientific Officer at WMO (Atmospheric Environment Research (AER) Division) in Geneva, Switzerland. To find out more see here.
The workshop brings together a wide range of experts on simulating the Earth System including atmosphere, ocean, waves, land-surface, atmospheric composition, cryosphere, and associated disciplines to advance the understanding of systematic simulation errors at all timescales. A particular emphasis is given to identifying errors in complex coupled systems and to understand their root causes. Progress in diagnosing and addressing systematic errors using a wide range of tools ranging from classical methods to advanced technologies such as data assimilation and machine learning / AI will be documented. The workshop will encourage an active discussion on relative merits of active development of physical models and parametrisations to address systematic errors versus bias correction methods. Please see the website for additional details on the topics of interest and format.
Early career researchers from selected countries will be able to enter a competition for best abstracts for oral presentations. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is pleased to offer funding for travel to ECMWF (UK) to the winners of the competition. Please see here for details.
We are delighted to invite you to the following event in the Tipping Element Discussion Series:
Paleoclimate insights on societal collapse How did climate influence the collapse of ancient civilizations?
3 June 2022, 17:30 – 19:00 CEST
Join AIMES, Earth Commission, Future Earth and the WCRP Safe Landing Climates Lighthouse Activity for the Paleo focused webinar in a series that aims to advance the knowledge about tipping elements, irreversibility, and abrupt changes in the Earth system. This event will look at paleo insights on climate change and how it has impacted societies – sometimes leading to their collapse.
Presentations :
Collapse of complex societies – Joseph Tainter (Utah State University)
How climate change impacted ancient civilizations- Ann Kinzig (Arizona State University)
Moderated by Timothy Lenton (University of Exeter)
The 2nd GCOS Climate Observation Conference (17-19 October 2022, Darmstadt Germany) will gather experts of climate science, climate observations, technology innovation, data scientists, climate services, users of data information and funding agencies to discuss and develop pathways towards a fit-for-purpose climate observing system for 2050 and beyond.
We are fast approaching the abstract submission deadline for the 6th WGNE Workshop on Systematic Errors in Weather and Climate Models, ECMWF, Reading, 31 October to 4 November 2022.

If you are attending the Arctic Science Summit Week (either in person or on-line) in Tromsø, Norway, please join the open-hybrid CliC Session “Ice and People” on Saturday 26 March, 4-6pm (UTC+1). See flyer for more details.
CATCH proudly announces the next science workshop to discuss atmospheric chemistry research, with a focus on natural processes specific to cold regions of the Earth. Please register online here.
The workshop will host invited talks, social interactions, and contributed posters on CATCH related topics with the aim of fostering scientific interactive discussions between researchers on outstanding questions. This workshop addresses researchers at all stages of their careers and will provide ample opportunity for early career scientist to present and discuss their work.
Sessions and topics will include:
Linking biogeochemistry to aerosol-cloud interactions in the Southern Ocean and Antarctic
Ocean-ice-snow-atmosphere fluxes
Polar halogen chemistry and interlinked processes
Cryospheric links to aerosol-cloud interactions
Coupling of ocean-ice-atmosphere processes: from sea-Ice biogeochemistry to aerosols and Clouds
The meeting format will be one topic per day split into 3 events about 2 hours each plus social time and poster sessions. The schedule will cover all time zones. We look forward to your participation.
