The Arctic Year of Polar Prediction (YOPP) Science Workshop will be jointly organized by the Polar Prediction Project and its International Coordination Office (ICO), the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC), and the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI). It will be held from 14 to 16 January at the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Helsinki, Finland.
The workshop will bring together YOPP scientists to present and discuss the first results from the Arctic Special Observing Periods in winter and summer 2018, providing a vivid forum for exchange, networking, and interaction. Studies of coupled atmospheric, ocean, sea ice, and land processes will be addressed to share feedback on the latest Arctic observations, modelling and prediction efforts including their benefits to society on time scales from hours to seasonal.
Confirmed invited speakers are:
Elizabeth C. Hunke, Jim Doyle, Machiel Lamers, John Marshall, Pierre Rampal, Ian Renfrew, Greg C. Smith, Gunilla Svensson.
Abstracts can be submitted until 3 September 2018 following this link:
