Letter of Intent Deadline: 18 September 2020
Scientists working in Earth observation are invited to submit ideas for ESA’s 11th Earth Explorer mission.
Earth Explorer missions are built in response to the needs of the scientific community in their quest to understand different aspects of the Earth system and the interactions that bind the system as a whole. The procedure for submitting an initial idea for this future mission begins with a letter of intent, which must be received by 18 September 2020. This will be followed with a workshop with Proposers on 5 October 2020 to explain the proposal guidelines. The deadline for submitting the
final proposal is 4 December 2020 at noon European time. More information about the Call and how to submit letters of intent can be found at ESA’s Earth Observation Proposal System. |

WomenInHydrology is a Google Group mailing list created to encourage and foster the active participation of female hydrologists in the hydrological community. While the information content is not intended to be only women-oriented, the mailing list is dedicated specifically to females in hydrology. However, anyone (regardless of their gender) interested in
joining the group is welcome to contact the organizers for access.

Paper Submission Deadline: 30 September 2020
The goal of this Research Topic is to showcase work that will lead to improved estimation and understanding of the fluxes that couple the atmosphere with the ocean, land, and ice. It will cover observational, theoretical, and modeling aspects of fluxes of energy (heat and momentum), water, and carbon dioxide at the Earth’s surface, including at the air-sea, air-land and air-ice interfaces.

Deadline for Manuscript Submissions: 31 December 2020
The journal Remote Sensing will feature a Special Issue (SI) on “Remote Sensing of Water Cycle Essential Climate Variables and their Applications” (ISSN 2072-4292, IF 4.118). The main topics of the SI are related to:
- New water cycle Climate Data Records (CDRs): development and generation procedures;
- Validation, capability assessment, and intercomparisons of water cycle CDRs;
- CDR exploitation in long-term analyses: regional climatology, variability and trends, extreme event projections;
- Droughts and floods: climatology and climatic driver identification;
- Capability of CDRs to capture extremes;
- Water cycle CDR exploitation in climate services for societal benefits;
- Exploratory studies of the connections among the water cycle, agriculture and food, public health, and energy

Rescheduled Dates: 10–12 February 2021
Location: Wageningen, The Netherlands
By Invitation Only
The 2nd Evapotranspiration Workshop has been rescheduled from 26–28 August 2020 to 10–12 February 2021. This workshop will focus on process understanding, with a strong observational component aided by process modeling studies, along the five lines defined in the first workshop: i) open-water evaporation, ii) interception, iii) soil evaporation, iv) transpiration, and v) landscape ET.
The sessions will be devoted to organized discussion after an introductory talk summarizing the state-of-the art of the subject of the session. The attendees will have the opportunity to discuss their ET related activities in poster sessions.

Rescheduled Dates: 16–18 March 2021
Location: Toledo, Spain
Organizers have rescheduled the workshop for one year from its original date with the same location, times, and format, and they plan to save previously-submitted abstracts. The goal of the workshop is to better understand the uses and limitations of the newly released GEWEX Global, 1 degree, 3-hourly Integrated Water and Energy products for use in understanding land surface-atmosphere interactions. The workshop seeks to both assess the overall consistency of the GEWEX
integrated product, as well as identify additional parameters that should be included in the product going forward.

Rescheduled Dates: 12–16 April 2021
Location: Toulouse, France
Organizers have postponed the meeting to 12–16 April 2021. Abstracts already submitted will be retained, and authors will be able to modify them. The abstract submission and registration site will remain open through the end of the year.
The goal of this workshop is to discuss and share the latest improvements of atmospheric parameterizations for the representation of clouds with a focus on turbulence, convection, cloud microphysics, and radiation. This concerns any type of models, including regional or global models with numerical weather prediction or climate applications. One focus of the workshop will be on the use of LES for the advancement of the representation of clouds.

Dates: 12–14 October 2021
Location: Darmstadt, Germany
The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), along with the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and supported by EUMETSAT, will be holding a conference that aims to assess how well the current global climate observing system supports current and near-term user needs for climate information. In particular, the meeting will examine how well observations of the global Earth cycles (the global energy balance, global water and carbon cycles, and explaining changing conditions of the
biosphere) support users’ needs for climate data.

Application Deadline: Position open until filled
The Meteorology Section of the Institute for Geosciences at the University of Bonn invites applications for a fixed-term 2.5-year position in the Hans-Ertel-Centre for Weather Research (HErZ) research area of “Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics” as a Post-Doctoral Research Scientist. The successful candidate will explore a post-processed reanalysis data set (i.e., surface reanalysis) with the aim of increasing the quality of the regional and local representation of climate in regional
reanalysis data sets. The position involves developing a post-processing data assimilation system at or below 1km horizontal grid spacing and applying it to existing high-resolution regional reanalysis data (especially the COSMO reanalyses formerly developed in the research group) with observations not previously assimilated.

Application Deadline: Open until filled
The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) seeks to hire a mid-career scientist with expertise relevant to coordinating water cycle science. The successful candidate will lead the United States Global Energy and Water Cycle EXchanges (U.S. GEWEX) Program Office and coordinate implementation of USGCRP’s water cycle related priorities.

Application Deadline: Position open until filled
Location: Saskatchewan, SK, Canada

The Postdoctoral Scientist will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team to study scaling relationships for extreme precipitation in mid-latitude climates such as Canada. The position will contribute to two projects, “Short-Duration Precipitation Extremes in Future Climate” and “Climate Related Precipitation
Extremes.” |
