The 2nd Hydrology, Ocean and Atmosphere Conference (HOAC 2014) will be held on June 13-15, 2014 in Beijing, China. This Conference will cover issues on Hydrology, Ocean and Atmosphere. It dedicates to creating a stage for exchanging the latest research results and sharing the advanced research methods.
Beijing has been the heart of China’s history for centuries, and there is scarcely a major building of any age in Beijing that does not have at least some national historical significance. The city is renowned for its opulent palaces, temples, and huge stone walls and gates. Its art treasures and universities have long made it a centre of culture and art in China.
We look forward to seeing you in Beijing! +
The 31st edition of the IUGG Conference on Mathematical Geophysics (CMG) is to be held at the Institut Henri Poincare (Paris) on June 6th to 10th, 2016. The CMG takes place every two years all over the world, and covers a wide spectrum of current research topics in Geophysics: physical based modelling and measurements in Geophysics, using mathematical and numerical approaches. The subjects of study span accross many geophysical topics, like e.g. terrestrial, atmospheric and oceanic flows, seismology, modelling of seismic sources and eruptions. This conference is traditionally dedicated to theoretical and modeling works but in 2016, it will also emphasize works with an experimental side or related to experimental investigation -- in particular conceptual experiments that address physical mechanisms and scaling laws. +

The 43rd Annual Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium will be held in Jackson Hole, WY, the weekend of 21-23 September 2012. This year's theme will be "The Field Tradition in Geomorphology" and will provide a forum for reflecting upon the historical development of our discipline, honoring the key contributions of a number of field-based geomorphologists who have recently passed away, and considering the role of field work as geomorphology moves forward into a new, more technologically-driven, computationally intensive era. +
The 45th International Arctic Workshop will be held 10–13 May 2015 at the University of Bergen, Norway
Please join our annual gathering of international researchers to present your work on any aspect of high-latitude environments (past, present, and future). We strive for a relaxed, friendly, and interactive experience, fostered in part by our relatively small size. And unlike most meetings, you can present your very latest research; the abstract deadline is only a few weeks before the Workshop. Student participation is strongly encouraged, with partial support available to those making presentations.
The meeting is open to all interested in the Arctic, and will consist of a series of talks and poster sessions covering all aspects of high-latitude environments. Previous Arctic Workshops have included presentations on arctic climate, glaciology, environmental geochemistry, geomorphology, hydrology, soils, ecology, oceanography, Quaternary history, and more. A traditional strength of the Workshop has been Arctic paleoenvironments, both marine and terrestrial. +
The 49th Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium is taking place from 5-7 October 2018 at Syracuse University, New York. This international conference brings together leading scholars in geomorphology under a themed topic. The topic of our symposium will be Sediment complexity within geomorphological systems. We are inviting abstracts for poster sessions at the 49th Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium.
Overview:
Processes controlling sediment initiation, transport, and deposition in watersheds are complex both in space and over time. Understanding the complexity of these processes at different spatial and temporal scales require collecting and analyzing data with different levels of detail, which may be achieved by using a variety of field, experimental, and modeling approaches, possibly combined with advanced technologies such as remote sensing, sediment tracing and dating, and unmanned aerial vehicle. New ideas and concepts around these approaches often arise from interdisciplinary collaboration among scientists in geography, geology, environmental engineering, freshwater ecology, and other relevant disciplines.
The 49th annual Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium will provide a forum for leading and emerging scientists and graduate students to exchange new ideas and catalyze potential collaboration on sediment complexity. The symposium will achieve the goal by focusing on three inter-connected themes: (1) complex processes of sediment dynamics over (relatively) short time scales; (2) complex patterns/trends of sediment dynamics over (relatively) long time scales; and (3) complex sediment dynamics across multiple scales. As well as keynote and poster presentations, we will use a workshop format to encourage discussion and work towards developing overviews of the state of the art across these themes.
Submission of Abstracts:
We are inviting abstracts for poster sessions within these three themes. The closing date for submissions is September 1st 2018. Please submit your abstract using the following link: https://goo.gl/forms/HJ6ekgFmPLyCyb0u2
The 5th International Disaster and Risk Conference IDRC Davos 2014 serves as the science & technology input platform for the post-2015 framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (HFA2) and provides recommendations towards the UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction in Sendai, Japan, in March 2015 on achievements, gaps and needs in science and technology for Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR).
Provide your input towards risk reduction and the HFA2 by submitting your abstract via the dedicated call for abstracts portal on the IDRC website:http://idrc.info. Submission deadline is 28th February 2014.
In addition to providing a forum for sharing scientific and technological knowledge and expertise, the 5th International Disaster and Risk Conference IDRC Davos aims to strengthen networks of professionals involved in disaster and risk management.

The 5th international Symposium on Urbanization and Stream Ecology (SUSE5) will be held February 12 to 15, 2020 in downtown Austin, Texas (USA) at the Palmer Events Center on beautiful Ladybird Lake. The intimate meeting of ~120 leading scientists, practitioners, and students will continue in the SUSE tradition of sharing and promoting collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches to managing and restoring streams in urbanizing landscapes. Such “wicked problems” require expertise in a variety of disciplines (e.g. natural and social sciences, engineering, landscape architecture, etc.) and SUSE5 seeks to bring together diverse teams to collaborate on real case studies spanning a gradient of Austin stream settings. Case study results will ultimately be shared with City of Austin staff to potentially advance to conceptual planning and other “pre-implementation” evaluation phases.
The draft agenda also includes opportunities to share individual research and contribute to global collaborations for articles in up to two special issues of relevant journals (e.g. see special issues from Freshwater Science for examples of past SUSE products: 2005, 24(3) pp. 585-737; 2009, 28(4) pp. 908-1098; 2016, 35(1) pp. 272-443). Interested registrants should be prepared to submit titles and abstracts (< 150 words) with their registration. Accepted abstracts will be invited to present at a radically reformatted poster session where posters are both easier to prepare and facilitate substantially greater knowledge transfer relative to conventional posters. +
The 5° IAHR Europe Congress will bring together the hydraulic community. The congress aims to provide a forum where scientists, especially early career researchers, can present their work and discuss their ideas with experts in all fields of hydraulics.
The congress deals with traditional themes linked to water (hydraulics, hydrology, fluids mechanics and hydraulic constructions) and also with frontiers themes between fluid mechanics/hydraulics an others disciplines, i.e. morphology and eco hydraulics, the ecology of aquatic environments, bio fluids, new strategies of defense against extreme events and the effects of climate changes. +

The Aegean region plays an important role in our understanding of geological problems of the eastern Mediterranean region and preserves important records of geological processes which have operated in a zone of convergence. Many examples of metamorphic, magmatic and sedimentary processes and related economic mineral deposits and energy resources of the region have already been extensively studied by earth scientists from around the world. This geological wealth is a consequence of a regional tectonic setting in which several continental blocks were amalgamated via Tethyan subduction events, giving rise to the present configuration of the region. The colloquium will be organized broadly along the lines of several regional geological topics, including tectonics, metamorphism, magmatism, sedimentation, GIS and remote sensing, geophysical research, mining and mineral deposits, energy resources and engineering geology. +
The Alluvial Fans Conference is the fifth in a series of international conferences held approximately every 4 years. It is a specialized meeting for scientists interested in all aspects of alluvial fans with discussions of new ideas encouraged by the small, interdisciplinary, and focused nature of the meeting together with the integrated field trip format. This series of conferences started in 1995 in Death Valley, USA, and have since been held in Sorbas, Spain (2003), Banff, Canada (2007) and Ras Al-Khaimah, United Arab Emirates (2012).
The conference brings together and international and interdisciplinary group of scientists interested in various aspects of alluvial fans: geology, geotectonics, sedmentology, geomorphology, hydrology, hydrogeology, engineering, resources, hazards, extra-terrestrial and land use on fans. Studies of modern fans as well as fans that are part of the stratigraphic record, as well as those on Earth and extra-terrestrial, will be presented. All those interested in the study of alluvial fans are invited to attend this meeting.
The conference is being hosted by Canterbury University in Christchurch, New Zealand and it will showcase the fans in New Zealand.
The Organizing Committee cordially invites all of our colleagues internationally to join with us for an exciting meeting in New Zealand in 2015. +

The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA) already concluded in 2004 that the Arctic is warming rapidly in an amplification of the global rise in temperature. Obviously this conclusion leads to an immediate concern for the huge ice masses stored in the Arctic, in the Greenland Ice Sheet and in the circumpolar ice caps and glaciers.
The ice caps and glaciers of the Arctic are currently reacting strongly to climate change, causing a significant contribution to sea level rise. The Greenland ice sheet has in recent years surprised the research community by exhibiting a large-scale synchronous accelerating mass loss on the time-scale of a few years, rather than centuries as previously assumed.
The IASC Network on Arctic Glaciology, formed out of the Working Group on Arctic Glaciology, aims to address these rapid changes in arctic ice masses by initiating scientific programs and facilitating international cooperation between glaciologists and climate modelers in order to develop the understanding of arctic land ice and its role in global climatic and environmental change. +
The Arctic Futures 2050 Conference—convened by the Study of Environmental Arctic Change (SEARCH)—will be an international conference designed to enhance collaboration between Arctic scientists from many disciplines, diverse Indigenous knowledge holders, and policy makers from all levels of government.
Poster sessions will be held during each day of the conference as an integral part of the agenda and expansion of the plenary sessions. Posters will offer opportunities to provide specific information relevant to the main themes of the conference, including:
Knowledge of the Arctic environment derived from field observations, Indigenous observations, laboratory measurements, or modeling;
Policy initiatives, activities, and methods—from all levels of government;
Descriptions of what we need to know to respond to a changing Arctic from Indigenous, scientific, or policy perspectives;
Tools or processes for informing policy with science or Indigenous Knowledge;
Tools or processes for informing knowledge holders and producers about policy needs;
Approaches that have supported collaboration across disciplines;
Ideas for addressing obstacles that limit collaboration across disciplines and geographies, and
Other topics relevant to collaborations needed to effectively respond to a changing Arctic environment are welcome.
In addition, you may email AF2050posters@arcus.org if you would like to present your work through another format, for example, through art or another creative platform.
Current sponsors of the Arctic Futures 2050 Conference include the National Science Foundation's Arctic Sciences Section, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and the American Geophysical Union. Conference partners currently include ArcticNet, Arctic Research Consortium of the United States (ARCUS), and the Wilson Center's Polar Initiative. +
