Abstract Deadline Extended to 19 June 2015 for Water and Energy Cycles in the Tropics Conference
There's still time to submit an abstract to the Water and Energy Cycles in the Tropics Conference - the deadline for submission has been extended to 19 June 2015 

The aim of the Conference is to provide a forum to review and discuss the latest research on water and energy cycles with an emphasis on tropical regions. Sessions covering the various aspects of this complex coupled problem will include the large scale Hadley/Walker circulation, the ITCZ, ENSO, monsoons, MJO, tropical convection, extreme rain events and droughts, and water and energy budget studies associated with these phenomena. A dedicated session is anticipated on the outcome of the TRMM mission's contribution to understanding the water and energy cycle in the tropics and precipitation processes.
Date: 17-19 November 2015

Sessions will be organized along the three overarching topics below.
 
Overarching Topic 1 - Global and Tropical Scales: What are the global scale energetic controls that influence the tropical regions?

Overarching Topic 2 - The Changing Water & Energy Cycle: How do the water and energy cycles respond to and feedback to climate change?

Overarching Topic 3 - Futures Directions: Updates, refinements, and new programmatic initiatives of the WCRP Challenges
