The Fifth JCOMM "Workshop on Advances in Marine Climatology" (CLIMAR-5) in conjunction with a Marine In-situ Wind Workshop will be held in Hamburg, Germany, from 6-9 May 2019. 

The ICTP-CLIVAR Summer School on Oceanic Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems will be organised on 15-21 Jul 2019 at Trieste, Italy. pplication to the summer school is now open until 15 April 2019.

A blog has been written by one of 2018 ENSO Conference participants, Michelle L’Heureux (NOAA Climate Prediction Center), who has made an oral presentation in Session 4 of the conference. 

CLIVAR (through the Pacific Region Panel and the ENSO Research Foci) and the Centro Internacional para la Investigación del Fenómeno de El Niño (CIIFEN), successfully organised the IV International Conference on El Niño Southern Oscillation: ENSO in a warmer Climate (ENSO2018).

The ICTP-CLIVAR Summer School on “Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems: Assessing and understanding their changes and predicting their future” will take place from 15 to 21 July 2019 in Trieste, Italy.

The Organising Committee of the IV International ENSO Conference encourage you to be a sponsor to the conference. There are several categories for the sponsorship opportunities. Please check the news for more details. If you are interested to become a sponsor, please contact enso2018@clivar.org 

The 6th Argo Science Workshop (ASW-6) is organized to prepare for Oceanbs’19 by providing an opportunity to share ideas presented in the Argo White Paper among the Argo community and to connect them to other observing networks and user communities including research/operational and other application areas.

This second-generation CLIVAR Science Plan builds on the important legacy of CLIVAR emerging since its inception in 1992 and redirects the CLIVAR goals and priorities for the coming decade after consultation with scientists and stakeholders throughout the climate community.
