“Bridging multiple space and time scales in climate sciences”: the 7th MedCLIVAR and the 12th SISC Annual Conference will take place jointly from 24 to 27 September 2024 at the University of Salento, Lecce, Italy. The Call for abstracts is now open until June 17, 2024.

The MedCLIVAR Network and the Italian Society for Climate Sciences (SISC) announce the joint MedCLIVAR-SISC 2024 Conference, which will take place from 24 to 27 September 2024 at the University of Salento, Lecce, Italy.

The event is jointly organized by the University of Salento, SISC and the Euro-Mediterranean Centre on Climate Change (CMCC) as the 7th MedCLIVAR and the 12th SISC Conference.

Both MedCLIVAR and SISC will be back to Lecce, where the respective first conferences were held, in 2011 for MedCLIVAR and 2013 for SISC.

MedCLIVAR-SISC 2024 develops a multidisciplinary vision of the evolution of the Mediterranean climate with studies on the atmospheric, marine, and terrestrial climate components at time scales ranging from paleo reconstructions to future climate scenarios.

The program will include scientific themes such as past climate variability; connections between the Mediterranean and global climate; Mediterranean Sea circulation and sea level; feedbacks on the global climate system; regional responses to greenhouse gasses, air pollution, and aerosols, as well as regional impacts of climate change.

Information on the conference organization, sessions and important dates are available at the MedCLIVAR-SISC 2024 Conference website.

Registration with the MedCLIVAR network is recommended to receive updated information on the progress of the conference organization. Information available in the “how to join the network” section.

The conference is planned to be organized with the physical presence of the participants.
