The Young Earth System Scientists (YESS) community is welcoming input from researchers of all career stages and sectors working on topics related to Earth system science on a survey on data-intensive climate science activities. A group of YESS members recently published a commentary article on the struggle of ECRs to find a balance between data intensive and
foundational climate science activities in AGU Advances ( https://doi.org/10.1029/2022AV000676). The aim of this article is to start a community-wide discussion on this challenge through the following survey: https://forms.gle/hbWgwKjbiytCdJ9X6. This short
survey is open until 15 October 2022.

Application Deadline: 15 November 2022 The Global Climate Observing Programme (GCOS) is looking for experts to join two of its panels: the Atmospheric Observations Panel for Climate (AOPC), and the Ocean Observations Physics and Climate Panel (OOPC). You can find more details
about the two calls on the GCOS webpage.

An overview of Calls for Papers can be found on GEWEX.org.
Dates: 27–29 March 2023 Location: Lleida, Spain Abstract Submission Deadline: 13 January 2023 The main objective of the GEWEX-supported Land surface Interactions with the Atmosphere over the Iberian Semi-arid Environment (LIAISE) project is to improve the understanding of land-atmosphere-hydrology interactions in a
semi-arid region characterized by strong surface heterogeneity owing to contrasts between the natural landscape and intensive agriculture. This conference invites contributions on topics that include: - Modeling studies aimed at including anthropogenic processes (land surface, meteorological, or hydrological) within or including the LIAISE area addressing the main project objectives
- Studies using observational data from the LIAISE field campaign
- Applications using remote sensing data (from planes, drones, or satellites) to estimate irrigation requirements or evapotranspiration over the region
|
Submission Deadline: 31 March 2023 This special issue aims to improve the knowledge of Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) through the publication of groundbreaking papers that focus on innovative and original approaches to research; an example is an evaluation of the effects of AR-forced rainfall on small–medium-sized hydrological basins.
Submitted articles may address, but are not limited to, the following scientific topics: - Impact of ARs on heavy rainfall, heavy snowfall and associated floods over the midlatitude areas
- Changes in the hydrological response of complex terrain due to ARs
- A special focus on the Mediterranean basin: the features, occurrence, seasonality, and effects of ARs in this complex domain
- AR-related storms in the contest of climate change
- ARs as a key
operational product for nowcasting applications and flood risk management.

Dates: October 31–November 4 2022 Location: Reading, UK The WCRP Working Group on Numerical Experimentation (WGNE) is organizing a hybrid workshop on systematic errors in weather and climate models. The workshop will review recent progress made on the atmospheric systematic error priorities identified from the 5th Workshop
on Systematic Errors, while also expanding focus to coupled systems. The workshop will be broadly organized around the following themes: - Clouds and precipitation
- Atmosphere-land-ocean-cryosphere interactions
- (Sub-)tropical circulations
- Stratosphere-Troposphere interactions
- Machine learning/AI and data assimilation
- Quantifying uncertainty
- Challenges and surprises in simulating the climate system

Location: Seattle, WA, USA Application Deadline: October 14, 2022 The Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington is seeking two Postdoctoral Scholar positions focused on understanding aerosol-cloud interactions in mixed phase clouds. The position will focus on (a) extending a numerical model of aerosol
processing in liquid clouds to include ice phase processes and studying the impact of cloud-aerosol interactions on mixed-phase clouds during marine cold air outbreaks; (b) conducting observational analyses with ground-based and airborne measurements to study factors controlling the development of precipitation in marine cold air outbreaks, including interactions between aerosols, clouds, and turbulence.

Location: Livermore, CA, USA Application Deadline: None specified Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has an opening for a Postdoctoral Researcher to work in the area of cloud feedbacks with the goal of reducing the uncertainty in model predictions of future climate. Research topics may include but are not limited to
understanding the role of clouds in Earth’s energy imbalance, evaluating climate model representation of the processes governing cloud responses on a variety of timescales, and developing observational constraints on cloud feedbacks. This position is with LLNL’s PCMDI project ( pcmdi.llnl.gov) and will sit in the Climate Sensitivity and Impacts Group in the Atmospheric, Earth, and Energy Division.
