In conjunction with the 3rd Pan-GASS Meeting, Understanding and Modeling Atmospheric Processes (UMAP 2022), GEWEX will have an by invitation-only Pan-GEWEX Meeting at the same venue from 27-30 July 2022, where the four GEWEX Panels will conduct relevant matters business. Another goal of this in-person meeting is to facilitate the closer interaction between panels.

The first GEWEX Scientific Steering Group Meeting (by invitation only) in 2022, the SSG-34A, is hosted by Institut Pierre Simon Laplace (IPSL)and will take place at Sorbonne Université – Pierre and Marie Curie Campus (UPMC), Paris, France from 3-5 May 2022. The SSG-34A has two main focus points:
- discussions about the new GEWEX Science Plan and other strategy documents to align with WCRP’s new priorities in anticipation of Phase IV (2023–2032) of GEWEX, and
- further work out the the details of the PAN-GEWEX program, which will take place at the HYATT Congress, CA, U.S.A from 27-30 July 2022, which should stimulate in particular the cross cutting activities between the four GEWEX Panels.

The WCRP Working Group on Numerical Experimentation (WGNE) organises 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
The second GCOS Climate Observation Conference (17-19 October 2022, Darmstadt, Germany) will focus on activities and solutions that help to achieve a fully implemented, sustainable, and fit for purpose global observing system for climate. The Conference will also provide the occasion to celebrate GCOS 30thAnniversary and take stock of the progress achieved by the global observing community in the last three decades.

As in past years, this three and a half day meeting will contain oral and poster sessions on:
- The assessment of cloud feedbacks, adjustments, and climate sensitivity, with an emphasis on the analyses of CMIP6/CFMIP3 experiments and observations.
- The role of cloud/radiation/precipitation/circulation coupling in large scale atmosphere/ocean dynamics (e.g. ITCZ, storm tracks, SST patterns) and the planetary energy balance.
- Process based analyses of cloud structures and cloud controlling processes using GCMs, fine scale models, idealized experiments, and observations.
- The role of the organization of cloud systems in climate.
This will be an in person meeting on the University of Washington campus. The meeting will NOT include remote-interactive presentations. A registration fee of $250 will be collected in April & May. The registration fee will be partially refunded if the Seattle meeting is canceled. Details will follow in April.
If you would like to attend but are unwilling or unable to attend under current covid related-travel restrictions, you are welcome to submit an abstract but please signify that you will only attend if the meeting is switched to a virtual format or that a colleague (who will attend in person) will present your work.
If the meeting needs to be canceled due to an upsurge in covid or an insufficient number of attendees being able to travel, a fully virtual meeting (likely using Gather Town) will be held at some later date.
If you have any further questions, please contact by email.

Launch of an International Monsoons Project Office (IMPO)
IMPO is a joint effort by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) to help coordinate the global monsoon research activities of the World Weather Research Programme
(WWRP) and the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP.
To commemorate the launch of the IMPO, a celebratory event is being held
online on 28 February 2022 at 13:00 UTC (1830 IST), coinciding with the
National Science Day in India.
For information, visit the official notification.
The Conference is the fifth international event focusing on applications of space technology for water in the series of conferences organised with financial assistance of the PSIPW and the Inter-Islamic Network on Space Sciences and Technology (ISNET). The expected outcome of the workshop is to make observations and converge on recommendations for the Groundwater Summit which will take place later in 2022, as well as for the 2023 Midterm Review of the Water Action Decade.
For information please visit the offical conference website.
The International Centre for Water Hazard and Risk Management (ICHARM), under auspices of UNESCO, Public Works Research Institute (PWRI), is the local host of the 9th International Conference on Flood Management (ICFM9) held in Tsukuba, Japan, from 18 to 21 February 2023.
ICFM offers an international conference platform, hosted every 3 years, to discuss a range of flood related issues and realise significant change in a multidisciplinary, multisectoral area. It provides a unique opportunity for various specialists including engineers, planners, natural and social scientists, health specialists, disaster managers, decision makers, and policy makers to come together to exchange ideas and experiences. ICFM will consider the range of issues and challenges that affect flood management, particularly the need to build resilience into future planning. By providing a forum for researchers, industry, policymakers and other stakeholders, the conference will identify the key concerns and significant challenges of the future.
For information please visit the official ICFM9 website.
The Japan Geoscience Union (JpGU) 2022 features a hybrid (in-person and online) meeting from 22-27 May 2022 and online Poster sessions from 29 May – 3 June 2022.
JpGU is an academic union that covers all the disciplines of Earth and planetary sciences and related fields.
The scientific functions of JpGU are currently conducted by five independent Science Sections: space and planetary sciences, atmospheric and hydrographic sciences, human geosciences, solid Earth sciences, and biogeosciences. JpGU’s main activity is the annual scientific meeting held in spring and the publication of our peer-reviewed journal (Progress in Earth and Planetary Sciences).
