Here's a short blog post for all of you out there publishing in the scientific literature (you know who you are). There's little less than a week left to submit your papers to the various sessions organized at this year's EGU General Assembly.
The first session I'd like to mention, is one chaired by my namesake Neven S. Fučkar from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, the invitation for which I received in my mail box yesterday:
We hope that you will be interested in attending and presenting your Arctic work at the following session at EGU 2017, 23-28 April 2017 (deadline for abstract submission: 11 January 2017, Wednesday 13:00 Central European Time):
Polar Climate Predictability and Prediction (co-organized: CL3.03/AS1.22/CR1.6/OS1.15)
The Arctic sea ice cover and many other elements of the cryosphere are experiencing significant changes over the modern observational era. The polar climate is crucial for the Earth’s energy and water budget, and its variability and change have direct socio-economic impacts. However, most of climate models are not yet in position to provide us with accurate predictions of polar climate. We welcome presentations advancing understanding of the mechanisms that control polar climate variability on sub-seasonal to multi-decadal timescales and climate change in both hemispheres. We encourage submissions that examine sources of polar climate predictability in a hierarchy of models, and link polar processes and predictions with mid- and low-latitude climate. We look forward to studies using remote sensing data, field observations, proxy data, theory and numerical models encompassing climate projections, reanalyses and forecast systems. This session aims to further connection between the atmospheric, oceanic and cryospheric research and operational communities. Furthermore, the session is an opportunity to present and discuss plans for the Year of Polar Prediction (YOPP), with its Core Phase commencing mid-2017.
We look forward to seeing you in Vienna,
Neven S. Fuckar, Virginie Guemas, Torben Koenigk, Matthieu Chevallier, Ed Hawkins, Edward Blanchard-Wrigglesworth, Rym Msadek, and Helge Goessling
But there are many other interesting sessions as well. Here's a list:
