The abstract submission deadline for the WCRP Workshop on the Earth's Energy Imbalance and Its Implications has been extended to 13 July 2018. More details below!
Dates: 27-31 August 2018 Location: L’Aquila, Italy Early-bird Registration Deadline: July 15, 2018
The purpose of this summer school is to illustrate the progress made in the scientific ability to generate detailed climate projections at the regional scale. The main objectives of the school
are to provide students with an insight into climate changes and impacts, as well as to associated uncertainties and their communication. Assessments on the most recent techniques for climate data analysis, for regional climate modeling techniques, for climate impact on hydrology, and for quality assessment and validation of the observations will be provided.
Save the Date: The 3rd International Conference on Water and Climate
Dates: 2-3 October 2018 Location: Marseille, France
Following the
success of the 2nd International Conference on Water and Climate, the World Water Council, with the support of the CoP22 Chair as represented by the State Secretariat for Water of the Kingdom of Morocco, and with the collaboration of other international partners, is pleased to announce the organization of the third edition of the event on 2-3 October in Marseille, France.
The central objective of the meeting is to mobilize and encourage a range of political,
institutional, technical, and scientific stakeholders to work together so that water remains an important element of climate discussions within the UNFCCC’s 24th Conference of the Parties in December of 2018. The program will offer special high-level segments on significant themes. A detailed agenda and registration information will be forthcoming. For further information, please email climateiswater@worldwatercouncil.org.
Letter of Intent Deadline: 1 September 2018
The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) is soliciting offers to host an
International Project Office (IPO) to coordinate its cryospheric activities from 1 January 2019 onward. The Climate and Cryosphere Core Project (CliC) of WCRP serves as the focal point for climate science related to the cryosphere, its variability and change, and interaction with the broader climate system. CliC activities have resulted in a wealth of cutting-edge research, valuable data products, and innovative use of models to project changes in the Polar Regions and other
frozen areas globally. Past host institutions of the CliC office have consistently benefited from elevated international exposure as well as increased leverage in national and international funding and partnership opportunities. The CliC International Project Office can act as a focus for cryosphere research in its host institution and country and through its network, infrastructure and expertise, can facilitate international research collaboration.
Dates: 13-16 November 2018 Location: Toulouse, France Extended Abstract Submission Deadline: 13 July 2018
The main objective of the workshop is to initiate a new WCRP-wide activity on the Earth’s energy imbalance and to thus strengthen and extend the community on
the imbalance through a community-wide discussion on links across all the WCRP Core Projects and relevant activities. The expected outcome is to identify research goals and opportunities focused on the Earth’s energy imbalance, and synthesize the various aspects across WCRP, through: - Discussion and reporting on how the CONCEPT-HEAT topic could evolve into a WCRP topic, together with research goals and priorities.
- Strengthening future international scientific collaborations with experts concerned with the flow of energy through the climate system, and its implications for climate variability on multiple time scales.
- Developing plans for future assessments of the Earth Energy Imbalance and its variability with the aim of documenting uncertainties, assessing their implications for prediction, and identifying future observational
needs.
- Developing a community paper on the Earth energy imbalance, or equivalent (e.g., a special issue).
Dates: 10-14 December 2018 Location: Washington, DC, USA Submission Deadline: 1 August 2018

The Hans-Ertel-Centre for Weather Research is hosting the first International Symposium on Regional Reanalysis from 17 to 19 July 2018 in Bonn, Germany. With reanalysis and in particular reagional reanalysis data sets getting more and more attention, the goal of the symposium is to discuss
and promote all aspects of regional reanalyses. This event will hopefully function as a kick-off for a series of recurring conferences or meetings on regional reanalysis in the following years.
