On February 17-18, US CLIVAR will host a workshop to create a shared understanding of ocean mesoscale eddy interactions with the atmosphere. The workshop will be held in conjunction with the 2018 Ocean Sciences Meeting in Portland, Oregon. 

On the fifth day, conference participants — filled with four days of fascinating, relevant, and timely discussions — were able to hear about the latest modeling efforts and different scenarios for the future. 

AGU Fall Meeting will be held this year from December 11 - 15 in New Orleans. In preparation for the meeting, the US CLIVAR Project Office has compiled a condensed list of sessions that are relevant to the community and organized by Panels, Working Groups, and community members. The list of sessions is not intended to be exhaustive but to help digest the collection of the hundreds of sessions and events. 

The conference rolled into the fourth day wrapping up the contemporary sea level presentations and beginning to address future projections. Participants also heard about the evolving requirements of integrated sea level observations for regional and local decision making. 

Halfway through the conference, day three brought a series of presentations on the risk, adaptation strategies, and stakeholder needs for coastal zone management. 

The second day of the conference was dedicated to presentations on contemporary sea level change, ranging from the role of ocean heat content to satellite missions to drivers of the variability of extreme sea levels.

The Regional Sea Level Changes and Coastal Impacts conference kicked-off on June 10, starting with past sea level rise and working towards understanding the future. Day 1 conference highlights feature keynote speakers, overview talks, and three sessions on paleo sea level data and modeling, millennial-scale ice sheet and sea level interactions, and contemporary contributions from ice sheets and glaciers.

As part of the 2017 Summit, we will be broadcasting two special sessions on Tuesday, August 8. The first one is Advances & Challenges in Understanding & Predicting Climate Teleconnections at 10:00am-12:00pm ET and the second one is Polar Sea-Ice & Ocean Interactions at 5:30-7:30pm ET. Check out our webinar page for a list of speakers and details on how to join. 

On July 10-14, hundreds of scientists and stakeholders will gather in New York to address the existing challenges in describing and predicting regional sea level changes and in quantifying the intrinsic uncertainties. Follow along at #sealevel2017 and check the website for daily summaries. 

For three days, members and collaborators of the US AMOC Science Team met in Santa Fe to discuss advances in our understanding of the overturning circulation. Over 60 oral and poster presentations can be found on the website, along with highlights from the discussion. Also, a digital story is available, which captures the progression of the meeting.
