Dates: 27 November–1 December 2023 Location: Lisbon, Portugal Abstract Submission Deadline: 17 July 2023 HYDROSPACE 2023 aims at reviewing the latest advances in the use of Earth Observation (EO) technology for water cycle science, hydrology, and its applications, exploring the potential
offered by the existing and coming EO satellites together with advanced modeling, in situ data, and novel technologies, as well as the main challenges and opportunities to enhance our current capacity to observe, understand, and predict the water cycle, and its impacts and feedback with human activities and ecosystems. The ultimate target of the event is to review the state of the art and latest developments in EO for water research and hydrology and contribute
to define a community scientific agenda for the coming few years, which will drive future scientific activities of ESA, other space agencies and partners to face some of the main societal challenges of our time. |

Submission Deadline: 31 December 2023 This special issue aims to improve the knowledge of Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) through the publication of groundbreaking papers that focus on innovative and original approaches to research; an example is an evaluation of the effects of AR-forced rainfall on small–medium-sized hydrological basins.
Submitted articles may address, but are not limited to, the following scientific topics: - Impact of ARs on heavy rainfall, heavy snowfall and associated floods over the midlatitude areas
- Changes in the hydrological response of complex terrain due to ARs
- A special focus on the Mediterranean basin: the features, occurrence, seasonality, and effects of ARs in this complex domain
- AR-related storms in the contest of climate change
- ARs as a key
operational product for nowcasting applications and flood risk management.

Dates: 6–7 July 2023 Location: Paris, France The tropospheric lapse rate is the gradient of temperature though the troposphere. How will lapse rate change with global warming? How as it changed in a recent past? What mechanisms control the lapse rate and its spatial distribution? Can past climate
reconstructions of lapse rate better constrain its controlling mechanisms and its future variations? The goal of this workshop is to investigate these questions by gathering different communities working on tropospheric lapse rate in tropical and subtropical regions. The idea of this workshop is to bolster interactions between different communities that seldomly interact, but who share the same science objectives. |

Dates: 3–7 July 2023 Location: Berlin, Germany Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE), with the support of the German Research and Education Ministry (BMBF) and other partners, has organized the Berlin Summit to advance Climate Science and Service. The Berlin Summit will bring together invited
participants from across the world to draft a blueprint for an international climate science and service center. Prominent keynote speakers from science, industry and politics will outline the challenges the center must address, and participants will adapt and fine-tune white papers outlining options for five facets of the proposed center: impact and service, science, technology, observations, structure and governance. |

Dates: 9–13 July 2023 Location: Paris, France The upcoming joint Cloud Feedback Model Intercomparison Project ( CFMIP) and Global Atmospheric System Studies ( GASS) Meeting will focus on the following topics, considering process and climate studies, and models and observations across a range of scales: - Convective organization: What controls the organization of shallow and deep convection, and what role does it play in weather and climate?
- Cloud processes: How do micro- to meso-scale
processes control cloud phase, precipitation and cloud-radiative effects?
- Clouds-circulation coupling: How do clouds couple to circulations and what role does this coupling play in weather and climate?
- Climate feedbacks and sensitivity: How do clouds respond to external perturbations and what role does it play in climate change?
The conference will highlight the complementarity, for answering those questions, of the suite of available models
(LES, CRMs, GCMs, global CRMs, conceptual models) and observations (field campaigns, observatories, satellites). |

Dates: 30 July–4 August 2023 Location: Singapore AOGS 2023 is the 20th AOGS annual convention, and will provide a unique opportunity to exchange scientific knowledge and discussion to address important geoscientific issues among academia, research institutions, and the public. A session of
interest to the GEWEX community is listed below: Session HS03: The third pole environment and high mountains of Central Asia–Hydrometeorological processes and human dimension |

Dates: 7–10 August 2023 Location: Diqing, Yunnan, China The theme of this year's conference is improving understanding of land-air coupling over the Highlands in Asia and over the world for better climate prediction and better service to society. Sessions
include: - Land-air coupling process and troposphere-stratospheric interaction;
- Climate/weather impact and adaptation;
- Changing (Asian) water tower and its impact; and
- Observation, modeling and data assimilation.

Dates: 21–25 August 2023 Location: Helsinki, Finland The purpose of the Baltic Sea Science Congress is to bring together scientists working on issues related to the Baltic Sea Region to present the most recent research and to discuss status, trends, and the future of the Baltic Sea as well
as future research needs. The target audience of the Congress is scientists working within the field of natural science in relation to the Baltic Sea Region, or other coastal seas that are of general relevance to the topic of the Congress. |

Dates: 29–31 August 2023 Location: Bergen, Norway This Convection Permitting Climate Modeling (CPCM) Workshop aims to communicate advances in CPCM and our understanding of fine scale processes, how these influence/are influenced by larger scale features, and to elucidate how climate change and
its impacts are experienced at local scales. It will also address barriers to continued advancement and discuss how researchers can tailor CPCM advances to support adaptation efforts, vulnerability and impacts assessments, and downstream climate services. |

Date: 22 September 2023 Location: Online GEWEX is interested in establishing a new project as a Global Flood Crosscutting Initiative that crosses several activities within the GEWEX Hydroclimatology Panel (GHP) and links with other GEWEX Panels. The goals of
the flood crosscutting initiative are to overcome barriers in flood modeling and observational architectures, and climate change and land use change impacts on flooding risk and consequences across current and future periods. The results of this first Flood CC workshop will allow the GHP to propagate flood modeling and research knowledge from one region to the other and synthesize results at a global scale. |

in early 2023, in order to perform research studies on land-atmosphere (L-A) interaction. LAFO operates a worldwide unique synergy of in situ sensors, scanning wind, humidity and temperature lidar systems as well as radar systems. Due to its configuration as observatory, a characterization of the diurnal cycle, transitions, the mesoscale and seasonal variability of the cloud-free and cloudy planetary boundary layer (PBL) as well as the moisture and energy budgets will
be achieved. The results will be applied to study L-A feedback and to develop new parameterizations of L-A fluxes and turbulence including entrainment. |
Application Deadline: None specified The Department of Hydrology and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Arizona (UA) is seeking 3 motivated postdoctoral scholars in hydrology and atmospheric sciences. As part of the effort, the successful candidates will work with a team of investigators from the University of Arizona, other
