Highlights of the conference were published in the August 2014 issue of GEWEX News
The increasing demand for fresh water and the impacts of climate change on water availability and extreme events highlight why water is a current major global concern and is “Trending Now.” The 7th International Scientific Conference on the Global Water and Energy Cycle will celebrate 25 years of GEWEX research and set the stage for the next phase of research addressing the World Climate Research Programme Grand Challenges on water resources, extremes, and climate sensitivity through observations and data sets; their analyses; process studies; model development and exploitation; applications, technology transfer to operational results, and research capacity development; and training for the next generation of scientists. Papers will be invited for all the topics of the Conference, which include: (1) the climate system; (2) land; and (3) atmosphere. The full description of sessions with conveners is available here.
Pan-CLIVAR Meeting, Pan-GEWEX Meeting, and GEWEX Summer Sessions
Following the Conference, GEWEX will have an invitation-only Pan-GEWEX Meeting at the same venue from 17-18 July 2014, where the four GEWEX Panels will conduct relevant matters business. At the same time, the Climate Variability and Predictability Project (CLIVAR), a sister organization of GEWEX, will host its own invitation-only Pan-CLIVAR Meeting at the World Forum.
The GEWEX Summer Sessions for Early Career Scientists will take place before the Conference from 10-12 July 2014 at the Delft University of Technology, and will be a mix of lectures and practical exercises covering various aspects of observations, modeling, and prediction of the energy and water cycle and related processes. Emails have already gone out informing candidates whether or not they have been accepted into the Summer Sessions.
