The two-week summer school will bring graduate students and young scientists together with academic specialists in climate science and decision makers from both the public and private sectors. It is specifically designed to immerse a new generation of scientists in the
opportunities and challenges

The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR), the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) and the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) are pleased to announce the kick-off workshop of the renewed Ice-Sheet Mass Balance and Sea Level (ISMASS) expert group.

The Local Organizing Committee and Portland State University look forward to welcoming the Antarctic community to Portland, Oregon in July of 2012.

This SCAR Open Science Conference will focus on SCAR's dual role of science and advice to policy makers. In a change to previous conferences the first

This workshop will provide training in the sampling, production, description and interpretation of thin sections of sediments from a wide variety of environments, with particular focus on glacigenic sediments. It is intended for research students, early career and established researchers who wish to

The workshop will bring together a multi-disciplinary group of scientists representing the bio-, cryo-, geo- and atmospheric sciences to investigate the issues that can be addressed by remote field programs. The aim is to exchange ideas about scientific priorities which could be explored from 2-3

The International Conference on Permafrost, held every four years, is the premier venue for all research related to permafrost.

The conference will focus on both arctic, antarctic and alpine permafrost research. The theme of the conference is “Resources and Risks in permafrost regions in a

Panelists include Suzanne Bevan, of Swansea University, Erin Pettit of the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Ross Powell of Northern Illinois University, and Ian Willis of Cambridge University. Each panel member will give a short overview of their career to date and then there will be a discussion

The 2012 NMEA conference is entitled "North to Alaska's Seas: A Confluence of Science and Culture". The NMEA Annual Conference will bring together formal and informal educators, scientists, students, and resource managers to share ideas about the world of water. Conference sponsors are the Northwest

Glaciers and ice sheets are making large contributions to rising sea level, and their mass losses are expected to accelerate in a warming climate. New technologies have broadened our ability to detect and monitor glacier and ice sheet changes, though large uncertainties about the current state of

Determining reliably the recent changes of the large continental ice sheets is a major scientific challenge. The results are of great societal importance, especially in terms of global sea level rise. Various satellite missions have provided unique data for monitoring the changing cryosphere, with
