The annual HyMeX International Workshop will be largely devoted to the review of the program’s major results since its launch in 2010 and its legacy in terms of knowledge advances, scientific dynamics, and challenges for the years to come. Besides the 10-year review sessions, the workshop program will consist of plenary and parallel sessions to present and discuss recent scientific progresses in the understanding of the Mediterranean water cycle and associated hydrometeorological extremes, with an open call for contributions, as well as meetings on future works.

INARCH is a network of scientists studying alpine research catchment hydrology aroundthe world and has the overall objective to better understand alpine coldregions hydrological processes, improve their prediction, and find consistentmeasurement strategies.
Thefifth annual workshop will address activities,progress, and plans towards its overall objective and its research questionsrelating to alpine hydrology and will follow on from 2019 WMO High Mountain Summit.
The workshop willinvolve a scoping of activities in various parts of the world:
- What is the state of observations including remote sensing advances and what is new near or on the ground?
- What is the state of and prospects for coupling atmospheric, cryospheric and hydrological models?
- How close are we to integrated OPsystems in mountain regions around the world and what are the steps to getthere?
INARCH will havereached the end of its initial 5-year term as a GEWEX GHP cross-cut project,and so this workshop will provide the chance to wrap up and summarize outcomesand plan for the future.

The 2020 Global Water Futures (GWF) Third Annual Open Science Meeting will bring together the broader GWF community (researchers, affiliates, partners, collaborators, and stakeholders) to share and celebrate our achievements, examine and learn from our progress, inform and deliver end user solutions, and plan and build on momentum for the next phase of GWF.
Objectives
Highlight state-of-the-art GWF water research, catalyze synergies, and continue shaping Canada’s water future.
- Explore evidence-based options and solutions for responding to water challenges and risks in a changing climate.
- Facilitate knowledge mobilization and dialogue across sectors and stakeholders by strengthening relationships between GWF researchers and end users.
- Build bridges between different knowledge systems and advance research co-creation with Indigenous projects.
- Support career development of young water researchers.

This symposium will celebrate the scientific contributions of Kevin Trenberth, who served as GEWEX SSG Chair, on the occasion of his retirement from NCAR. Scientific talks will cover a range of topics that Kevin has contributed to, including Earth’s energy budget, modes of internal climate variability, the character of precipitation, attribution of climate extremes, and the realities of a changing climate.
Invited and contributed talks will fill the morning and early afternoon sessions. A lecture given by Kevin will begin at 4pm, followed by a reception in his honor (5:30-8 pm) with an open mic for sharing reminiscences and well-wishes.
Symposium attendance is free of charge, but please register early as registration is capped. Please note that registrations will close on 25 February 2020.
Objectives
The 6th PannEx Workshop is dedicated to introduce the ongoing and planned research on climate change in extreme weather events and adaptation, and to discuss the cooperation possibilities for research projects. The workshop is intended to strengthen & organize the work of the PannEx Task Teams and develop a new iteration of the Science and Implementation Plan.
PannEx Task Teams
* Agroclimatological and Agrobiological Systems
* Energy Production
* Special Observations and Data Analysis
* Ecosystem Services
* Urban Climate and Air Quality
* Outreach and Education
* Micro-meteorology and Agronomical Process Modelling
* Water Balance at Basin Scale
* Modelling from Climate to Flash Floods

Sessions
1. Land-air coupling process and troposphere-stratospheric interaction;
2. Climate/weather impact and adaptation;
3. Changing (Asian) water tower and its impact;
4. Observation, modeling and data assimilation.
The Conference will consist of several invited plenary lectures with a few parallel sessions.

The course will focus on past and future changes in climate of the Baltic Sea region. The Baltic Sea is a semi-enclosed sea with a large freshwater supply from rivers of the adjacent catchment area in the transition zone between maritime and continental climates in northern Europe. Many long-term observational data are available and provide a good knowledge about oceanic changes during the past two centuries and even longer periods.
Students will be introduced into fundamental processes of the atmosphere, ocean, sea-ice and land surface with relevance for the climate system.
