The Qingdao National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology (QNLM) in China is proud to host the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP)’s CLIVAR Open Science Conference “Charting the course for climate and ocean research” in September 2016. QNLM is delighted of the opportunity to convene the international research community for this important event given its strong interest in promoting greater understanding of our climate and the ocean. The Open Science Conference, and the associated Early Career Symposium and Regional Stakeholder Forum, promise to bring together prominent international scientists and the future generation of scientific leaders.
The collective voice and expertise of the international climate community is essential in shaping the international research agenda on the coupled ocean-atmosphere system. The World Climate Research Programme’s (WCRP) Core Project on Climate and Ocean – CLIVAR - invites the international climate community to review the state of the science, to prioritize international research plans and to initiate new collaborations. In September 2016 CLIVAR will hold an Open Science Conference to engage the wider collection of scientists who work in this important area.
Review progress toward improved understanding of the dynamics, the interaction, and the predictability of the coupled ocean-atmosphere system.
The objectives of the CLIVAR Open Science Conference are to:
Shape ideas to meet emerging ocean and climate science challenges
Engage with the future generation of climate scientists
Identify key climate research and stakeholder issues
Develop and strengthen collaborations across nations, disciplines and age groups and promote integrative studies
In addition to the main event, the Conference will have two other events which will target specific audiences: the CLIVAR Early Career Scientists Symposium, a 3 day programme, designed by and for Early Career Scientists; and the Regional Stakeholder Forum, a one day event bringing together CLIVAR scientists and practitioners who have an interest in climate science to exchange ideas, outline requirements and discuss future collaborations with a particular focus on the Asia-Pacific region.
