The scope of this Workshop is to address scientific and technical challenges related to convection-permitting climate modeling (km-scale horizontal grid spacing). The aim of the three-day meeting is to foster collaborations and synergies to work on this challenging topic as a community. There will be oral and poster sessions, several invited talks on key challenges, and multiple opportunities for discussions and networking.

The objective of this workshop is to:
- Advance scientific understanding of multi-year predictability
- Characterize physical and dynamical processes in the coupled climate system, including the oceans, land surface, and cryosphere, that can be exploited to improve multi-year forecasts
- Highlight the challenges for producing skillful multi-year predictions with state-of-the-art earth system models
- Construct a framework to identify user requirements for multi-year predictions that will help inform predictability research and model development
- Identify knowledge gaps, determine future research direction and foster new initiatives and collaborations by bringing together research, operational, and applications community
- Assess specific observational needs for improving multi-year predictions that are not currently met
- Identify prototype applications of multi-year forecasts and assess their utility
The conference will cover the topics of Baltic Earth, in particular highlighting the Baltic Earth Grand Challenges as defined by the Baltic Earth Science Plan. The grand topic of the conference „Earth system changes and Baltic Sea coasts“ refers to the manifold aspects of the changing Earth system of the Baltic Sea region, in the atmosphere, on land and in the sea. Climate change and the associated sea level rise, but also other human activities puts a particular pressure on the coasts of the southern Baltic Sea, of which the Hel peninsula and the Polish coasts in general are exemplary. Land-sea interactions and human uses shape and modify the coasts all over the Baltic Sea.

The aims of the conference are: 1) exchange of the most recent results of the scientific research in meteorology; 2) strengthening communication with the users of meteorological data, along with the general public and media; 3) strengthening cooperation between meteorologists and other scientists and, 4) as promotion and popularization of meteorology.
This prestigious two-week event, from 3-14 February 2020, offers around twenty selected applicants an opportunity to work closely with peers and experts from academia and government agencies to develop advanced understanding and analytical skills.
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.
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.

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.

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.
