The iLEAPS – OzFlux hybrid conference will be held on Tuesday 31 January – Friday 03 February 2023. The topic is Biosphere – Atmosphere Interactions and Global Change from Microbial to Planetary Scales. The original date of the iLEAPS – OzFlux Joint Conference was February 2021. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the conference has moved to 2023. The conference will be delivered in a hybrid context, that being a mix of physical and virtual attendance. Further details of how this will run will be announced during the year. ESC workshops and pre-conference tours will be held on Monday 30 January, and post-conference tours will be held on Saturday 04 February.

The research platform ‘iLEAPS’ (Integrated Land Ecosystem-Atmosphere Processes Studies) is one of several Future Earth research initiatives, with the critical goal of bringing together researchers from a variety of fields related to land-atmosphere exchange processes.
This includes, but is not limited to carbon, water and trace gas exchange, land use change, atmospheric composition, and the societal and related environmental issues.
AUT is proud to host the 6th iLEAPS Science Conference in 2023, in the vibrant city of Auckland and online, in conjunction with the yearly conference of the Australian/New Zealand Network for eddy covariance measurements (OzFlux).
The program for the 2022 Sustainability Research and Innovation Congress (SRI2022) is now available.
SRI2022, the second edition of the world’s largest gathering dedicated to transdisciplinary research and innovation in sustainability, will feature workshops, innovation demonstrations, networking and special events, plenaries, an idea market, and much more. The program of SRI2022 will double from the inaugural Congress with nearly 200 sessions showcasing the newest advances in sustainability science and demonstrating groundbreaking work to translate knowledge to action.
Explore the SRI2022 program and speakers, and start creating your schedule to network with more than 2000 experts leading sustainability research and innovation.
You still have time to register for the Congress. Join us at SRI2022 held in Pretoria, South Africa, or online, June 20-24, 2022. Read more here.
The International Space Science Institute is hosting a workshop on 10-14 October 2022 in Bern, Switzerland. Workshops are selected by the ISSI Directors in consultation with the Science Committee. The programs and speakers are defined by a group of highly qualified experts serving as convenors. The Workshops of a week duration (in exceptional cases repeated) can be attended by up to 50 scientists and experts. Workshops always lead to a volume of the Space Science Series of ISSI (SSSI) and in parallel as issues of Space Science Reviews or Surveys in Geophysics. Stay tuned for more information.
The Scenarios Forum will be taking place as an in-person and partly online conference at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and Laxenburg Conference Center in Laxenburg, Austria.
The forum brings together a diverse set of communities who are using or developing scenarios for use in climate change and sustainability analysis to: exchange experiences, ideas, and lessons learned, identify opportunities for synergies and collaboration, reflect on the use of scenarios, identify knowledge gaps for future research.
The first Forum on Scenarios for Climate and Societal Futures was organized in Denver, Colorado, in 2019 and provided a key means of facilitating integration across the climate modeling, integrated assessment, and impacts, adaptation, and vulnerability communities, as well as with additional relevant research communities including future studies, development economics, and governance. The activities at the first Scenarios Forum were summarized in a Meeting Report (O’Neill at al, 2019). Based on the Scenarios Forum 2019, the state of the use of the Scenarios Framework was summarized and several next steps for the Scenario Process were identified, synthesized in a paper by O’Neill et al. (2020).
The Scenarios Forums are presented by the International Committee on New Integrated Climate Change Assessment Scenarios (ICONICS), who aims to organize and stimulate the Scenarios Process and to foster interaction across climate-related scientific disciplines. The ambition is to rotate the conferences geographically and between organizers from different scientific disciplines. The ICONICS Steering Committee has taken on the role to solicit and select conference organizers and assure that a Scenarios Forum is taking place every other year. The actual organization, specific focus, and details of each Scenarios Forum are in the hands of the conference organizer and their Scientific Steering Committee.
The Forum is presented by the International Committee on New Integrated Climate Change Assessment Scenarios (ICONICS) and hosted by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in partnership with IAMC.
Tune in for a session organized by our MESH working group on Session #42: Advances in human-Earth System interactions in scenario development with invited talks by Alan Di Vittorio (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) and Sibel Eker (Radboud University, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). Registration is now open for virtual attendance!
