We are pleased to welcome you to the Fourth 'PAST Gateways' (Palaeo-Arctic Spatial and Temporal Gateways) International Conference. The conference is hosted by the Geological Survey of Norway (NGU).

There are four main themes for the conference. We invite abstracts on studies addressing problems

The course provides a basic introduction to the dynamics of glaciers and ice sheets with a focus on ice-climate interactions. The course is meant for Ph.D. students that work on (or will soon start working on) a glaciology-related climate project. A few places are available for junior scientists.

The XVI Glaciological Symposium will be held from 24 to 29 May 2016 in St.Petersburg, Russia. It is organized by the Institute of Geography of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute.

The Symposium will cover a wide range of topics:

* Recent climate and

Worldwide interest in the Arctic is increasing. Changing ice-conditions, regional growth and international geopolitics have placed the High North at the center of attention.
