  1. EXTENDED REGISTRATION:
    Time Series Analysis in Environmental Science and Applications to
    Climate Change
    Fixed-Point Open Ocean Observatories
    10-11 November 2016
    Tromso, Norway

Organizers of a conference entitled "Time series analysis in
environmental science and applications to climate change" have extended
the registration deadline to Sunday, 9 October 2016. The conference will
convene 10-11 November 2016 in Tromso, Norway.

EXTENDED REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Sunday, 9 October 2016.

The goal of the conference is to provide a discussion forum in the field
of time series analysis and forecasting based on in-situ and remote data
analysis and modeling. This conference will gather senior and young
researchers (post-doctoral, doctoral, and master students) to share their
experience in time series interpretation across several scientific
fields. Presentations will show how observations can help detect climate
change and its impacts focusing on both the mathematical modeling,
statistics, signal processing , and the environmental scientific results.

Conference themes:
- Marine environment and connections with land and atmosphere (e.g.,sea
ice, atmospheric measurement, foraminifera, biogeochemistry);
- Sea level;
- Methane measurements and analysis;
- Ocean carbon cycle; and
- Mathematical tools to understand climate change.

Grant applications are available to students.

To register, send completed regular or student application forms via
email to: Time.Series.Conf [at] ifremer.fr.

EXTENDED REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Sunday, 9 October 2016.
