In light of the tragic events occurring in Paris on November 13th and the resulting security measures being taken, the Water and Energy Cycles in the Tropics conference has
been cancelled. The organizers will try to reschedule the conference for sometime in the near future.
Dates: 18-25 September 2016 Location: Qingdao, China
The collective voice and expertise of the international climate
community is essential in shaping the international research agenda on the coupled ocean-atmosphere system. The World Climate Research Programme’s (WCRP) Core Project on Climate and Ocean (CLIVAR) invites the international climate community to review the state of the science, prioritize international research plans, and initiate new collaborations in the realm of ocean-atmosphere science. In September 2016, CLIVAR will hold an Open Science Conference to engage the wider collection of
scientists who work in this area. In addition to the main Conference, there are two other events: the one-day CLIVAR Early Career Scientists Symposium and the one-day Regional Stakeholder Forum.
Application Deadline: 31 January 2015
The online application for the 2016/2017 academic year of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) Diploma in Earth System Physics is now open. The Earth System Physics Diploma program is open to students with a minimum of an MSc in a relevant area. Topics include fluid dynamics, climate dynamics, variability and
change, dynamics and physics of the atmosphere and oceans, Earth system dynamics, and the geophysics, seismology, and physics of volcanoes. Information on the current program can be found here.
Abstract Submission Deadline: 30 November 2015 Dates: 17-20 May 2016 Location: Stockholm, Sweden
The International Conference on Regional Climate (ICRC)-CORDEX 2016 will bring together the international community involved in regional climate research focusing on high resolution climate information, and its applications
to the vulnerability, impacts and adaptation community and the full spectrum of potential end users of regional climate information. It will further promote the CORDEX vision to advance and coordinate the science and application of regional climate downscaling through global partnerships. Financial support is
available for early career scientists and scientists from developing countries.
Abstract Submission Deadline: 15 December 2015 Dates: 2-4 March 2016 Location:
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
This conference will give producers and users of climate observations and other stakeholders the opportunity to discuss the current monitoring of the Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) and to highlight possible new areas for ECVs. These discussions provide a key input into the new Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Implementation Plan that is now being prepared for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) in 2016.
The registration deadline is 15 February 2016. Since there is a size limitation on the amount of participants, early registration is appreciated.

The International Science Conference (ISC) on MAHASRI (Monsoon Asian Hydro-Atmosphere Scientific Research and Prediction Initiative) will be held at the International House in Tokyo Metropolitan University, Tokyo, Japan, from 2-4 March 2016. In this workshop, the research achievements, impacts, and future prospects of MAHASRI and related projects will be presented. Anyone interested in the Asian monsoon hydroclimate is welcome to
attend.
Application Deadline: 1 December 2015
The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) seeks a new executive director. Responsibilities include preparing IAI long-range plans and financial policies; proposing the annual work program and budget; designing and implementing fund-raising strategies;
promoting and representing the IAI; and ensuring the continued participation of member countries in IAI meetings and activities. Find more details at the IAI site.
Application Deadline: 5 January 2015
CLIVAR is a Core
Project of the World Climate Research Progamme dedicated to understanding the role of the ocean in the variability, predictability, and change of climate and to the benefit of society and the environment in which we live. The International CLIVAR Global Project Office (ICGPO) is one of several offices of the International CLIVAR Project Office (ICPO) and is based at the
State Oceanographic Administration’s First Institute of Oceanography (SOA/FIO, Qingdao, China). The ICGPO Staff Scientist assists the ICPO Executive Director to ensure that the ICGPO provides an effective executive arm for the CLIVAR Scientific Steering Group (SSG), its panels, and working groups. For more information on the responsibilities and qualifications for the position, check the CLIVAR website.
The NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Hydrological Sciences Laboratory (HSL) and Goddard Earth Sciences Data and
Information Services Center (GES DISC) are pleased to announce the release of the NASA Energy and Water cycle Study (NEWS) Climatology of the 1st Decade of the 21st Century Dataset, and its availability from http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/uui/#/search/NEWS.
This data set summarizes the original
observation-based mean fluxes of Water and Energy Budget (WEB) components during the first decade of the 21st century, for each continent and ocean basin. These data are summarized on both monthly and annual scales, as well as means over all oceans, all continents, and the globe. A careful accounting of uncertainty in the estimates is included. Also, the data set includes optimized versions of all component fluxes that simultaneously satisfy energy and water cycle balance
constraints.
