[Aqualist] AMOS-ICTMO 2019

[Kathy Allen]

Hi all,

We are organising a palaeoclimate session at next year’s Australian Oceanographic and Meteorological Society and International Conference on Tropical Meteorology and Oceanography (AMOS-ICTMO) meeting, 11 - 14 June 2019.

 Our session is "3.14 Palaeoclimates and palaeo-environments: proxies and modelling advances"  and we'd love to hear about your latest work. There is an emphasis on the tropics this year, but the session also incorporates general topics such as advances in modelling, palaeo-environmental reconstructions and palaeoclimate synthesis efforts. The blurb for the session is at the end of this email.  Details of all sessions can be found at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_V-fcpNMrJjN0dSLUNXUTQyYlBCeFhRakpvajdSOVF4NWMw/view<https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_V-fcpNMrJjN0dSLUNXUTQyYlBCeFhRakpvajdSOVF4NWMw/view>).

The deadline for abstracts is 11pm, 18 November 2019.  More information about the conference generally can be found here: https://amos2019.org.au/<https://amos2019.org.au/>

Palaeoclimates and palaeo-environments: proxies and modelling advances


There is an increasing demand for both palaeoclimate and more general palaeo-environmental records to place present-day climate and environmental changes in a longer-term context.  Such records are invaluable for improving assessments of future risks and uncertainties associated with climate change and extreme events. Palaeoclimate records also provide crucial constraints on climate models, including their climate sensitivity and the simulation of natural climate patterns on time scales from seasons through to millions of years.

We welcome contributions 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 session spans palaeoclimate and palaeo-environmental reconstructions, climate modelling, data-model comparisons, and palaeoclimate synthesis efforts. Presentations combining multiple datasets or methods, with a focus on understanding underlying dynamical processes, are encouraged.   This year, we especially welcome contributions related to the tropics.
