11th International Meeting of Statistical Climatology (IMSC), University of Edinburgh, Scotland, 12-16 July 2010
The aim of IMSC is to promote good statistical practice in the atmospheric and climate sciences and to maintain and enhance the lines of communication between the atmospheric and statistical science communities. See http://cccma.seos.uvic.ca/imsc/11imsc.shtml for further details.
Topics cover:

  • Techniques for multimodel ensembles
  • Understanding recent climate change and predicting the near term future Extreme events
  • Predictions of climate change relevant for impacts
  • Reconstructing and understanding climate change over the Holocene
  • Statistical methods for climate data.

International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society -  IGARSS 2010, Honolulu, Hawaii, 25-30 July 2010
This is the 30th anniversary of IGARSS, They will celebrate their accomplishments over three decades of leadership in remote sensing instrumentation, techniques, and applications development. An importantly aspect will be to look ahead to the future of this field with some fresh approaches and perspectives through the conference theme: Remote Sensing: Global Vision for Local Action. One such activity will be embodied in a plenary session, which will focus on the emerging field of Community Remote Sensing (see: http://www.igarss2010.org/CommunityRemoteSensing.asp).

There will be an exhibition at IGARSS 2010 from 27 to 29 July 2010, which will bring together over 2,000 engineers, researchers, teachers, students, and scientists from around the world to review the latest issues and studies of Earth remote sensing, and their environments in space. Join companies, government agencies, educational institutions, research facilities, scientific societies, and others exhibiting the latest in geoscience instruments, equipment, software, books and journals, and scientific programs at the International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium.

2nd Marine Board Forum: Towards a European Network of Marine Observatories for Monitoring and Research, Brussels, Belgium, 16 September 2010
This one day forum will address the following questions:

  • What role do marine observatories play in the provision of long-term (decadal-scale) time series data from European seas?
  • What are the technical challenges for an effective interoperability between systems, new observational capabilities and improved data management?
  • What observatories and projects are currently in place and what are the critical gaps in coverage and measurements?
  • How can sustained funding schemes, new partnerships and innovative governing structures be designed to best support a stable observatory network?

Attendance is open to European and National policy makers/advisors and programme managers, marine scientists, industry and NGOs. Information is available at: http://www.esf.org/index.php?id=6834
