Past climate reconstruction and modelling session description
Palaeoclimate research reveals processes and interactions that are not necessarily apparent in climate records of the modern era. In addition, palaeoclimate records provide constraints on climate sensitivity and natural climate patterns, which are critical for evaluating the models used to project future climate variability and change. Past climate research gives novel insights into climate over many time scales-from the seasonal through to millions of years-and as such will be of broad interest to the climatological and meteorological community. Furthermore, this session will provide an important forum for active researchers in Australia and New Zealand, involved with paleoclimate reconstructions and modelling, to engage with each other and the broader climate research community.
We anticipate a lively session that includes presentations related to all aspects and time scales of past climate, including those that bridge the gap between past and future changes in the climate system. The topics covered are likely to include palaeoclimate reconstruction, climate modelling, data-model comparison, as well as work from international palaeoclimate synthesis efforts e.g. the PAGES 2k Network and INQUA SHAPE research from Australia and New Zealand. Presentations that combine multiple datasets or methods, with a focus on understanding the underlying dynamical processes, are likely to feature. Abstracts spanning any time period up to and including the last 100 years are welcome and will make an important contribution to placing present-day climate in the context of past climate variability.

Conveners: Duncan Ackerley (Monash University), Helen McGregor (University of Wollongong), Kathryn Allen (University of Melbourne), Joelle Gergis (University of Melbourne), Drew Lorrey (NIWA, NZ), Steven Phipps (University of Tasmania).

AMOS/MSNZ Conference and
ANZ Climate Forum 2017
7-10 February 2017, Australian National University, Canberra

Abstract submissions
Reminder - submissions open until midnight 4 September 2016 - NO EXTENSIONS

Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (AMOS) and Meteorological Society of New Zealand (MSNZ) are holding a joint conference in conjunction with the Australian/New Zealand Climate Forum (ANZCF) from Tuesday 7 to Friday 10 February 2017 at the Australian National University in Canberra.

The overall theme is “Australasian weather, climate and oceans: past, present and future”.

The Conference will run from 7–10 February (4 days), with the ANZCF incorporated within the conference on 9–10 February (2 days). Workshops and other peripheral sessions such as outreach meetings are being planned for Monday 6 February. It is envisioned that there will be two registration options, providing flexibility for participation.

ANZCF will be orientated towards topics of potential interest to both AMOS attendees and those who just wish to attend the ANZCF and will include sessions of interest to a wide climate and user community.  It is envisages that some ANZCF sessions will be interactive to draw climate scientists and users of climate information together to discuss issues (e.g. what climate users want, data collection and dissemination). Other topics may include climate education, policy makers and climate, deep-time climate, climate and history/environment/ecosystems.

Abstract submission

The abstract submission website will be open until midnight Sunday 4 September 2016. We are calling for abstracts for the sessions listed below.  Please submit to the one of the general sessions if you are unsure of the topic.
