The 2025 US CLIVAR Summit, held in Boulder this past July, featured three plenary sessions and thirteen breakout sessions covering a wide range of pressing climate variability and change topics. Presentations from the sessions are available on the Summit agenda.

The 2026 Ocean Sciences Meeting will take place February 22-27 in Glasgow, Scotland. Contribute to "Creating a Current of Community" by registering to attend.

The 2025 Fall AGU meeting will take place December 15-19, 2025, in New Orleans, LA. The theme, "Where Science Connects Us," will explore and celebrate the connections shaping the broader Earth science community. Abstract submissions are due Wednesday, July 30.

The 106th Annual Meeting of the American Meteorological Society will take place January 25-29, 2026 in Houston, Texas, and online. Featuring sessions on the history, accuracy, and evolution of conceptual models, the theme, "Fast and slow thinking: The human factor in a rapidly changing world," will explore the role of human decision-making in advancing public safety, economic prosperity, and sustainability. 

Published in Journal of Climate, Karnauskas (2025) re-examined a collection of historical estimates made since 1961, as well as drifters and other modern observations and state estimates, to provide new constraints on this key variable.

Shackelford et al. (2025) present a framework for identifying state-dependent prediction skill using neural networks and self-organizing maps (SOMs), and offer an example application to prediction of North Atlantic atmospheric circulation.

Check out the newly published report from the Ocean Model Development, Data-driven Parameterization, and Machine-Learning in Ocean Models of the Earth System workshop. This workshop was a joint effort between CLIVAR/ COMMODORE, and took place September 9-12, 2024.
