All Announcements

The Ocean Carbon Hot Spots Workshop will take place on September 25-26 in Moss Landing, California. You can check out the poster presentations in the digital gallery. 

Requests are now being accepted for up to one new US CLIVAR-sponsored working group for 2018. Submissions are encouraged from the US climate science community. All documents must be submitted by October 12, 2017. The next call for working groups will be in September 2018.

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, and limited to 50 participants. Applications are due October 6. 

Requests are now being accepted for US CLIVAR-sponsored workshops for 2018. Submissions are encouraged from the US climate science community and their collaborators. All documents must be submitted by September 29, 2017. The next call for workshops will be in spring 2018. 

The WCRP/IOC Sea Level Conference organizers seek signatories for the conference statement, based on input from the broad community. You can read about the conference in the daily highlights and a "by the numbers" graphic. 

Held February 11-16, the 2018 Ocean Sciences Meeting will bring together ocean researchers and collaborators in Portland, Oregon. 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 2017 summer edition of Variations, with guest editor Sonya Legg (Princeton U.), is themed: "Polar ocean and sea ice interactions." This edition focuses on describing and understanding the interactions between ocean circulation and sea ice, in addition to highlighting new observational and modeling opportunities. 

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.
