The 37th GEWEX Scientific Steering Group (SSG-37) meeting is hosted by Victoria University of Wellington and Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences (GNS) | Te Pū Ao in Wellington, New Zealand. This year’s SSG-meeting will take place from Monday to Friday, 10–14 February 2025.
The GEWEX SSG-37 will focus on internal matters: the new GEWEX Science Plan for GEWEX’s Phase IV (2022-2032), how that translates to current and future panel activities and how it aligns and links with WCRP’s science priorities, including the WCRP Lighthouse Activities, and each GEWEX Panel will report on their activities in 2024 and plans.
Furthermore, this meeting will also focus on GEWEX activities in relation to our sponsors and international partners and a part of this meeting will be used to reflect on the GEWEX Open Science Conference held in Sapporo in July 2024.
Lastly, our program will be completed with presentations from the other WCRP core projects, LHA-activities, Space Agencies, and other relevant international programs.
The agenda will become available in January 2025.
The GEWEX SSG-37 is an in-person meeting ‘by invitation only’, with limited remote participation capability (e.g., watching, questions via comments).
