[Aqualist] SHAPE Workshop: Quaternary variability, abrupt change and tipping points, 2-3 February 2018

[Steven J Phipps]

We now have a healthy number of registrations for the SHAPE Workshop on
Quaternary variability, abrupt change and tipping points, to be held in
Wollongong on 2-3 February 2018.

However, we are also aware that many people have been busy with
end-of-year commitments. Applications for financial support are closed,
but we will continue to accept registrations for the workshop until 15
January 2018.

Season's greetings to you all. We look forward to seeing you in Wollongong
in February!

Southern Hemisphere Assessment of PalaeoEnvironments (SHAPE) Workshop:
Quaternary variability, abrupt change and tipping points

2-3 February 2018

Hosted at The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences University of
Wollongong, NSW Australia

SHAPE is an International Focus Group supported by the Palaeoclimate
Commission of INQUA (PALCOM). It provides a support network for
palaeoclimate / palaeoenvironmental research by Quaternary scientists
working within the Southern Hemisphere. Details about SHAPE can be found
at this website: http://www.inqua.org/PALCOM/pcSHAPE.html

We invite researchers who have an interest in climate variability, abrupt
change and tipping points to participate in the upcoming SHAPE workshop on
2-3 February 2018, to be held at the University of Wollongong.

Wollongong is located approximately two hours south of Sydney by train. We
have planned this workshop to occur immediately prior to the joint
Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society/International
Conference on Southern Hemisphere Meteorology and Oceanography
(AMOS-ICSHMO) conference, which is being held in Sydney from 5-9 February
2018. Further information on this meeting can be found here:
https: //www.amos-icshmo2018.com.au

The workshop will produce a group synthesis paper on the current state of
knowledge and future recommendations for the development of late
Quaternary proxy networks and model simulations that capture evidence of
variability, abrupt change and tipping points.

Registrations will remain open until 15 January 2018.

There is no registration fee. A circular will be available shortly with
details about the schedule, venue, transport and accommodation options.
