From Science to Application: Climate Science, Hydrology, and Planning – Part 1
Learn about: results of studies evaluating local and regional trends in extreme events, different approaches for evaluating future precipitation, an analysis of current State stormwater infrastructure standards, and a method being considered by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) for a Climate-Resilient Infrastructure standard.
Date: September 21, 2021 | Time: 2:00-3:30PM Eastern Time
From Science to Application: Climate Science, Hydrology, and Planning – Part 2
Learn about some of the ways researchers are helping communities consider climate change in local planning. Participants will gain insights into approaches for evaluating climate change impacts on hydrology for planning.
Date: September 28, 2021 | Time: 2:00-4:00PM Eastern Time
What’s on the Horizon for Science and Application of Climate Change Information for Water Infrastructure Managers?
An interdisciplinary conversation among thought leaders to provide participants an idea of what is on the horizon for helping communities build resilience of water management infrastructure and how we can move forward as a nation.
Date: October 5, 2021 | Time: 1:30-3:00PM Eastern Time
Peer Examples: Evaluating Changing Precipitation Trends for Managing Water Infrastructure
Provide examples of how some communities are moving forward, using future precipitation considerations for local decision making.
Date: October 12, 2021 | Time: 1:30-3:00PM Eastern Time
The Asian Precipitation Experiment (AsiaPEX) was launched in 2019 as a prospect Regional Hydroclimate Project (RHP) under the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX) program and its Hydroclimatology Panel (GHP) and is the successor of the GEWEX RHPs GAME and the MAHASRI.
Under the threat of the climate change due to the global warming, understanding and future projection of the Asian monsoon system have become crucial missions of the hydroclimatological research community. Accordingly, we defined the objectives of AsiaPEX as ”Understanding of Asian land precipitation over diverse hydroclimatological conditions and multiple time scales for better prediction, disaster reduction, and sustainable development”.
To attend the webinar on September 4th at 15:00 hrs IST (09:30 am UTC) visit SAMA YouTube channel.

NASA’s ACTIVATE airborne field mission focuses on aerosol-cloud-meteorology interactions and it will hold an online open data workshop to encourage the use of its observations by the broad community. ACTIVATE is an on-going multi-year mission to collect remote sensing and in situ observations of aerosols, clouds, and the atmosphere using two aircraft centered over the western North Atlantic Ocean. The team is eager to engage more data users and enhance collaboration.
The ACTIVATE open data workshop will be held online, 20-21 October 2021, 9:00 – 11:00 am (EDT). The workshop is free and open to all. For more information on the workshop and how to register, please visit: https://activate.larc.nasa.gov/events/2021-open-data-workshop/.

The Risk Modeling and Insurance Working Group of the Knowledge Action Network on Emergent Risks and Extreme Events (Risk KAN) is organizing a three-day workshop to bring together scientists and practitioners in the field of modeling risk in human and environmental systems. The first day will focus on systemic risks due to tipping points, the second day will focus on advances in modeling socio-economic impacts, and the third day will focus on resilience and adaptation.
“An exploration of climate science in Central Asia –– moving towards frontiers of knowledge and action”
This workshop will build from an online survey on climate change in Central Asia that GEWEX and START recently initiated (survey report can be found here). An important outcome of this workshop will be to collaboratively identify key priorities for research and capacity development, regionally based individuals who can provide provisional leadership, and a plan for mobilizing resources that builds towards a GEWEX regional hydroclimate project, and that serves to inform the emerging WCRP RIFS (Regional Information for Society) core project.

Every year, AGU Fall Meeting unites >25,000 attendees from 100+ countries in the Earth and space sciences community to discuss findings, connect scientists from around the world, advance our profession and connect over our passion for the impact of science.
It convenes thousands of researchers, scientists, educators, students, policymakers, science enthusiasts, journalists and communicators who are driven to better understand our planet and environment, and our role in preserving its future.
It is a results-oriented gathering rooted in celebrating and advancing positive individual and collective outcomes.
That’s why Science is Society is the AGU Fall Meeting 2021 theme.

The 2021 American Association for Aerosol Research (AAAR) conference is the premiere venue for sharing the latest research progress in aerosol science and technology in the United States, while networking and re-connecting with colleagues in industry, government, and academia. AAAR organizers are planning for an in-person conference, but they will be prepared to switch to virtual if required.

The fast growth of the field of decadal prediction has led to something of a research and operations gap in the intermediate time scales, which range from more than a few seasons to less than a few years, despite clear evidence of both societal and scientific interest in improved understanding and forecast skill on this multi-year time scale as well.
The aim of this workshop is to stimulate research into developing useful multi-year climate predictions, by identifying what can be predicted, what might be predictable,
and what needs predicting for a time horizon beyond a year.
The organizing committee is aiming to host the workshop in a hybrid format.

The main focus of the workshop is on simulating mesoscale processes and extreme events with CPMs at local to global scales and the use of high-resolution climate models for hazard and impact assessments.
Main discussion Topics:
- Advancements in high-resolution regional and global climate modeling
- Computer science and next generation supercomputers
- Toward global CPMs
- Extreme events and hazards assessments
- Ensemble based on high-resolution modeling
Register for the workshop (7-10 & 14 Sept) is free and you are encouraged to submit a poster for presentation.
