1. How will new technologies affect society and the workforce overall?
2. How will these changes translate to the Weather, Water and Climate community?
3. How do these changes affect the knowledge, abilities and skills required to succeed in our community.
Since the GEWEX/GASS/”Impact of initialized land temperature and snowpack on sub-seasonal to seasonal prediction” (LS4P) Initiative and “Third Pole Experiment Multi-Model Intercomparison” (TPEMIP) Project was launched in 2018, more evidence and researches supported that the high elevation land surface temperature/subsurface temperature (LST/SUBT) in the initial condition in the Third Pole region (TP) has substantial remote impacts on precipitation at subseasonal to seasonal scales (S2S). After the productive and successful LS4P workshop at the 2018 AGU Fall Meeting, the follow up workshop will focus on regional climate modeling (RCM) intercomparison and the effect of light-absorbing particles in the snow (LAPS).

The 5th workshop is dedicated to introduce the ongoing and planned research on climate change in extreme weather events and adaptation, to share experiences on this area and climate-related communication, to discuss the cooperation possibilities with the participants from Central and Eastern Europe, and other part of the continent in order to develop future cooperation for research projects in Pannonian Basin. The workshop is intended to build & organize the work of the PannEx Task Teams.
The workshop is open for experienced and young researchers, experts and decision makers involved in climate change adaptation. Registration is free, but the number of participants is limited to 50.

This week-long event celebrates WCRP’s 40th anniversary.
Driven by increases in computing power, the treatment of small-scale physical processes in atmospheric models is at an exciting juncture. Some recent approaches (e.g., higher-order closure) are being implemented operationally, and others (e.g., machine learning) are being explored in earnest. To discuss these alternatives and future possibilities, the National Science Foundation and the National Center for Atmospheric Research are sponsoring a tutorial and workshop on advanced physical parameterizations for atmospheric models.
The tutorial will run 2.5 days (June 10-12th), and will feature lectures describing the physical parameterizations used in advanced atmosphere models, with a focus on the Community Atmosphere Model version 6, released in 2018. The tutorial will also allow attendees to explore the parameterizations through practical sessions with simplified models. Tutorial presenters will include CAM parameterization developers (Larson, Gettelman, Bacmeister) and NCAR staff.
The deadline to apply for the Tutorial Application is March 31, 2019.
The tutorial will be followed by a 2.5-day workshop (June 12-14th) on new and emerging topics in physical parameterization of the atmosphere for weather and climate models. Invited speakers will review current ideas and methods for parameterization, and explore new approaches including machine learning and integration with finer scale models. There will be ample time for discussion, with a goal of having synthesis and recommendations on promising avenues for future science, research, and model development. Students will be expected to attend the full 5 days.
The deadline to apply for the Workshop Application is April 30, 2019.
Invited Workshop Speakers include: Peter Caldwell (LLNL), Jack Kain (NOAA), Joao Tiexeira (NASA-JPL), Falco Judt (NCAR), Tapio Schneider (Caltech), Ken Carslaw (Leeds), Andrew Ackerman (NASA-GISS), Michael Pritchard (U. Irvine

Evaluating the responses of mountains to climate and other changes, and their resilience as social-ecological systems, requires the consideration of multiple and mutually interacting stressors. The IMC 2019 aims to encourage in-depth cross-disciplinary discussions towards a new understanding of mountain systems, their responses and resiliencies.
Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS) was established in 2003 to promote geosciences and its application for the benefit of humanity, specifically in Asia and Oceania and with an overarching approach to global issues.
AOGS holds annual conventions providing a unique opportunity of exchanging scientific knowledge and discussion to address important geo-scientific issues among academia, research institution and public.
This is a special opportunity for participants from Canada and from around the world to come together and share their science and culture. 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of IUGG; we will look back on the accomplishments of the previous century of Earth and space science research, and forward to the next century of scientific advancement. Join us for a host of scientific activities, including special public lectures, keynote Union lectures and a wide variety of themed sessions.
