Asian Precipitation Experiments (AsiaPEX) is a recent launched prospective GEWEX RHP (Regional Hydroclimatological project) focusing on Asian monsoon, based on achievements of the MAHASRI project (2006-2016).
Main objective of AsiaPEX is understanding of Asian land precipitation over diverse hydroclimatological conditions for better prediction, disaster reduction and sustainable development.
The focus of the Kick-Off Conference is to exchange ideas associated with all aspects of hydroclimatological research. They range all main objectives, scientific approaches and key questions of the AsiaPex project.
The deadline for submitting your application is 24 June 2019. More information and details can be found at https://unibuc.ro/conferences/bucss2019/#About.
Arctic Futures 2050 will explore the opportunities and challenges for deeper dialogue between scientists, Indigenous knowledge holders, and those making and influencing policy. Our goal is to facilitate such dialogue and avenues to sustained collaboration. To that end, this conference asks:
- What do we know, and what do we need to know about the Arctic, and why does it matter?
- What challenges confront policy makers in the rapidly changing Arctic?
- What basic research is needed to inform responses to Arctic change?
- What applied research is needed to inform responses to change?
- What tools can facilitate informing policy making with science and Indigenous knowledge?
- What opportunities exist for partnerships between policy makers and scientists?
Overarching Workshop Questions:
- What are the scientific and technological frontiers in monitoring and modeling regional groundwater recharge and flow in various regions of the globe?
- How can remotely sensed data be utilized in regions where in situ measurements, observations, and instrumentation may be particularly difficult?
Workshop Goals:
- Assess regional freshwater budgets under major use scenarios (e.g., agriculture, industry, municipal);
- Examine state of the art and research frontiers in characterizing groundwater aquifers, including residence time, quantity, flow, depletion, and recharge, using remotely sensed observations and proxy data;
- Discuss groundwater model uncertainties and methods for mitigating them using sparse ground observations or data and other approaches; and
- Consider our ability to detect which water management strategies (e.g., water reuse, irrigation efficiencies, desalination) that affect groundwater flow and recharge are being used and any changes in their use over time.

- How will new technologies affect society and the workforce overall?
- How will these changes translate to the Weather, Water and Climate community?
- How do these changes affect the knowledge, abilities and skills required to succeed in our community?
