The proposed theme of The International Symposium on Tropical Meteorology (INTROMET-2021) is Changing Climate: Consequences and Challenges and is hosted by the Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT).
It will provide an excellent opportunity for the national and international community of Atmospheric Scientists to discuss various issues of the changing climate and their consequences and challenges.

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the 2021 CFMIP meeting will be held online. Continuing the themes from previous years, contributions related to Clouds, Precipitation, Circulation, and Climate Sensitivity are welcome. All participants are invited to join the live discussions at the virtual poster halls at Gather Town.
SCIENTIFIC THEMES
- Forcing, Feedbacks, and Climate Sensitivity
- Observations and Model Evaluation
- Precipitation and Hydrological Sensitivity
- Coupling Clouds with Atmospheric and Oceanic Circulation
- Extratropical Cloud Processes and Feedbacks
- Convective Processes

The Global Terrestrial Network for Hydrology (GTN-H) is a joint project of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS). It is a federated network of major global data centres, linking water-related observations at a global scale, supporting scientific advance and operational applications with regard to climate variability and change as well as water resources assessment and management.
More information about GTN-H can be found at https://www.gtn-h.info/about-us/
14th Global Runoff Data Centre (GRDC) annual meeting.
The GRDC is an international archive of data up to 200 years old, and fosters multinational and global long-term hydrological studies. Originally established three decades ago, the aim of the GRDC is to help earth scientists analyse global climate trends and assess environmental impacts and risks. Operating under the auspices of WMO the database of quality controlled “historical” mean daily and monthly discharge data grows steadily and currently comprises river discharge data of well over 10,000 stations from 159 countries.
For more information about the GRDC visit https://www.bafg.de/GRDC/EN/Home/homepage_node.html.
With the increase in data availability and recognition of uncertainty, MODSIM2021 will focus on how modelling and simulation can be used to translate data into action.
Building on the traditional modelling and simulation papers in diverse areas, papers will explore the conference theme from a wide spectrum of disciplinary perspectives organised in different streams. Special themes of the conference will include methods that take advantage of large datasets, scenario modelling of uncertain futures under climate change, resource constraints, and conflicting objectives.
MODSIM2021 will be held as a hybrid event, with people attending in person at The University of Sydney and International Convention Centre and also attending as virtual participants through an online platform.

The University of Birmingham Catchment Science Summer School is a 5-day short course that is intended for post-graduate students and post-docs interested in a hands-on catchment science curriculum, focusing on northern catchments, runoff processes and combined hydrometric, isotope/chemical tracer and modeling techniques in catchment hydrology. The learning objectives for this short course are to understand:
- Rainfall-runoff processes
- Rainfall-runoff model development, use, and testing
- Hydrochemical and isotopic measurement and analyses
- Linking field experiments with modeling approaches
- Evolution of empirical and theoretical understanding of runoff processes
- Landscape analysis, land-use and climate change impacts on streamflow
