9th GEWEX Water Vapor Assessment (G-VAP) Workshop
Dates: 22+23 April 2026
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark
EXTENDED Abstract Submission Deadline: 25 March 2026
The 9th GEWEX Water Vapor Assessment (G-VAP) Workshop is hosted by the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) in Copenhagen, Denmark and will take place from 22-23 April 2026.
The main objectives of the G-VAP are:
- Quantifying the state of the art in water vapour products being constructed for climate applications, and, by this
- Supporting GEWEX Data and Analysis Panel ‘s (GDAP’s) selection process of water vapor products for its generation of globally consistent water and energy cycle products.
All three GCOS Essential Climate Variables on water vapor are considered.
It has been a while since the G-VAP community last met. Thus, a key objective is to finally meet again and catch up. The objectives of the 9th G-VAP workshop are to:
- Discuss latest results from analysis of atmospheric water vapour and its role in the climate system
- Finalize the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) report on G-VAP results
- Discuss and plan the future of G-VAP
- Liaise with related initiatives and projects
Unifying Innovations in Forecasting Capabilities Workshop 2026
Dates: 20–24 July 2026
Location: College Park Marriott Hotel & Conference Center, MD, USA (hybrid)
Abstract Submission Deadline: 30 April 2026 COB
Unifying Innovations in Forecasting Capabilities Workshop 2026 (UIFCW26) is an opportunity for community partners, across academia, industry, and government, to collaborate in the shared mission to advance forecasting capabilities. The theme for this year’s workshop is a New Frontier: Optimizing New Technology in a Changing Weather Enterprise. Objective of this workshop is to strengthen the understanding of the collaborative efforts to improve the Unified Forecast System (UFS), accelerate meaningful contributions, and measure progress more effectively.
Focus will continue on integrating sectors of the Weather Enterprise and fostering a community aligned with the mission of the Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC), emphasizing government research and the crucial role of community building. UIFCW26 is dedicated to engaging and uniting efforts to advance forecasting capabilities for a more informed future.
Scientific Reports for the Compound extreme events Collection
Journal: Scientific Reports – Springer Nature Group Programme
Research: Compound extreme events Collection
Submission deadline: 30 April 2026
This Collection welcomes original research on compound extreme events, including dynamics, forecasting and risk assessment, but also strategies to mitigate their impact. Modelling and estimation studies supported by observational data will also be considered.
