HS7.6 Climate change and water infrastructure
Deadline for abstract submission: 17 January 2012
We cordially invite you and your colleagues to join our session HS7.6 Climate change and water infrastructure at the EGU General Assembly 2012, which will be held in Vienna, Austria, 22 – 27 April 2012.
Climate change is one of the foremost scientific topics worldwide. Its consequences at the river-basin scale are strongly connected to the existence of water infrastructure and the occurrence of extreme hydrological phenomena.

Conference on climate variability

ESF Research Conference Announcement:
Modes of Variability in the Climate System: Past - Present - Future
27 May - 1 June 2012, Obergurgl, Austria
The ongoing climate warming requires a detailed understanding of global and regional climate variations and forecasting of their future changes using climate models. These changes pertain not only to the average global warming but also to changes in regional climate, circulation patterns and their temporal variability. To decrease the uncertainty in these model predictions, climate models have to be validated using paleoclimate data as provided by natural climate archives. Spatially representative climate modes and teleconnection patterns and their temporal variability allow for this validation and represent the vehicles to contrast rather coarsely resolved climate models to point-wise paleoclimate data.
