6TH OzEWEX Workshop: Human-environment interactions in the Murray-Darling Basin – from forecasting to foresighting

1st International Workshop on Global Monsoons Intercomparison Project (GMMIP)

Scientific discussion meeting organised by Professor Hayley Fowler.

Extreme heavy precipitation is increasing in frequency and intensity, and results from new global sub-daily datasets and high-resolution modelling suggest that precipitation extremes will intensify more than anticipated based upon theoretical considerations. Understanding this process is vital in advancing the theoretical knowledge necessary for a step change in regional prediction from understanding the nature and drivers of precipitation extremes.

Attending this Workshop is “by invitation only”

This workshop will exchange the information and ideas in the latest LS4P developments and activities from the LS4P groups.  The workshop will also provide a forum to discuss a plan for a special LS4P issue in the journal Climate Dynamics, and three major LS4P papers.

***** TENTATIVELY RESCHEDULED TO 25-30 APRIL 2021 *****

Due to COVID-19, the 19th Alps Adria Scientific Workshop has been postponed to the spring of 2021. Please consult the website for any updates.
The main goal of the Workshop is to rehabilitate relationship among scientific and professional communities linked by historical ties, but separated by historical events. This cooperation offers an opportunity for the career starter generation, PhD students and young researchers to enter the international scene, to learn how to make a poster, to deliver a presentation in English language, to publish pieces of work and to create relationship with others.

Subjects of the Workshop:

  • Soil Sciences
  • Food Production and Supply Issues
  • Cultivation and Production
  • Food Safety and Alimentaion
  • Animal Husbandry
  • Energy Cropping
  • Climate Change
  • Environmental Protection
  • Management and Development                                    
  • Entomophagy
  • The objective of Eurosoil 2020 (https://eurosoil2020.com) is to bring together leading research scientists working on soil related topics and stakeholders dealing with issues of public concern, such as soil degradation and consequences of climatic changes. The important bridging role of soil practitioners to translate scientific knowledge into practice will be emphasized during Eurosoil 2020.

    FESSTVaL (Field Experiment on submesoscale spatio-temporal variability in Lindenberg, http://fesstval.de/), a measurement campaign, is holding a Summer School during its intensive observation period in July 2020. From 13 to 24 July 2020 in Lindenberg, Germany, M.Sc. and Ph.D. students and Postdocs in meteorology, physics, and related research areas will gather to gain insight into observing and understanding submesoscale atmospheric dynamics, such as convective scale observations from different platforms, submesoscale dynamics, and modeling.

    The application deadline is 30 November 2019, and you can find the call for applications at http://www.fesstval.de/…/fe…/Files/Call-For-Applications.pdf.

    This meeting of the GEWEX Scientific Steering Group will focus on updating GEWEX’s strategy documents and Imperatives (https://www.gewex.org/about/science/seven-gewex-imperatives/) to align with WCRP’s new priorities.

    This year’s annual GDAP Meeting will review progress of the ongoing GDAP Assessments and Projects. As one of the four panels of the Global Energy and Water Cycle Exchanges (GEWEX), a core program of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP), the GEWEX Science Questions and the WCRP Grand Challenges will be at the heart of these discussions.

    The goal of this workshop is to discuss and share the latest improvements of atmospheric parameterizations for the representation of clouds with a focus on turbulence, convection, cloud, microphysics and radiation. This concerns any type of models: regional or global models with numerical weather prediction or climate applications.

    The workshop is organized in the framework of the High-Tune project (http://www.umr-cnrm.fr/high-tune/) and follows, in the spirit, the 2017 Delft meeting on the future of cumulus convection and the 2019 Paracon conference. It will be organized around with only one plenary session with a mixture of invited and contributed presentations and poster sessions.

    The 6th OzEWEX workshop will discuss the science and modelling technology requirements to help inform policy decisions related to water management, including identifying research and investment priorities to understand the historical, near-term and long-term movement of water throughout the basin. The topic will be approached from a biophysical perspective but also from social, economic, ecological, engineering and policy perspectives.
    The format will include invited presentations, facilitated discussion and opportunities for networking.

    This GMMIP international meeting will focus on new progress in GMMIP activity, monsoon modelling and research, will address new results of assessment of monsoon modelling, variability, attribution, predictability and projection, especially from the CMIP6 experiments, and will make plans of modelling and analysis in the next two years in support of the IPCC AR6.
