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

Theme
Improving understanding of land-air coupling over Asian Highlands for better climate prediction and better service to society.
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.

Dr. Angelo Lupi and his colleagues gently offered to host the 16th BSRN Meeting, which will be held at newly established Institute of Polar Sciences (https://www.cnr.it/it/istituto/127/istituto-di-scienze-polari-isp), an institute of the Italian National Research Council’s.
Dr. Angelo Lupi is the station-scientist of the Dome-C Antarctica BSRN site, operating since 2006.

Please visit the meeting website for updates from the organizers.
Sessions and abstracts are encouraged on a wide range of related topics, included but not limited to: integrated hydrological modeling, agricultural crop modeling, land surface modeling including agriculture and groundwater, remote sensing of hydrology and agriculture, groundwater sustainability, climate change impacts on water and food security, climate adaptation strategies for urban and agricultural regions, socio-hydrology including innovations in integrated river basin planning and management and conjunctive surface and groundwater management in agricultural regions.
This virtual workshop will be held from 5-7 April 2022 and aims to review capabilities of existing technology and the capacity for their use in surface monitoring, data assimilation, and modeling applications. This in turn should be used to provide expert recommendations and coordination guidance for surface observations. The International Surface Working Group (ISWG) will:
- Snow, ice, and cryosphere-atmosphere interaction
- Vegetation and land-atmosphere fluxes
- Soil moisture, river-discharge, and water cycle
The last main point of emphasis for the 4th IESWG will be to prepare our recommendations and input to the CGMS WGII.

This Summer School is devoted to runoff prediction in ungauged basins (PUB), i.e., predicting water runoff at locations where no runoff data are available. This lack of data presents considerable challenges to catchment managers who require information on water flows for decision making. This course, based on the book “Runoff Prediction in Ungauged Basins: Synthesis across Processes, Places and Scales”, will provide hydrologists with the theory and methods to address this critical challenge. The collection of speakers will bring together results from individual location-based studies and show how a comparative approach can be applied to learn from the differences and similarities between catchments around the world along gradients of of climate and landscape features.
Masters and Ph.D. students researching catchment hydrology and practicing hydrologists who are challenged by making predictions in the absence of runoff data are encouraged to attend.
The 10th International Cloud Modeling Workshop will be held in Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune, India, 27th to 31st July 2020.
The workshop cases that will be discussed, are:
- PI Chamber Simulation Case: Modeling Aerosol-Cloud-turbulence Interactions in the Cloud Chamber
- Aerosol effect in deep convective clouds under different monsoon environments over the Indian peninsula: a CAIPEEX-Case study
- Isolated cumulus congestus based on SCMS campaign: comparison between Eulerian bin and Lagrangian particle-based microphysics
- Convection in Strong Vertical Wind Shear: The 2 Aug COPE Case
The ICCP conferences are organised every four years by the International Commission on Clouds and Precipitation (ICCP) together with a host institution. ICCP is a commission of the International Association of Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences (IAMAS), an association of IUGG (International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics).
The goal of the conference is to provide a venue for presenting scientific research and advances in the area of clouds and precipitation. The ICCP conference also strives to enhance the exchange of ideas within the international community on clouds and precipitation.
The 2020 Joint Meeting will keep its theme: “For a Borderless World of Geoscience.” The conference is scheduled to be held from May 24 (Sun) to 28 (Fri), 2020 at the Makuhari Messe International Convention Complex in Chiba City. A full range of commemorative events and special projects are also being planned for the 30th anniversary of the first Japan Earth and Planetary Science Joint Meeting, the predecessor group to the Japan Geosciences Union.
The organizers expect that many interesting sessions will be proposed the leaders of the next generation, students and early career researchers, and important research results will be presented with lively discussions. They also hope that the 2020 joint meeting will serve as the foundation for the next 5 years to a decadal span―it hinges on your enthusiastic participation and cooperation.
