The 4th International Conference on Snow Hydrology will take place in Grenoble, France from 30 January to 2 February 2024.

Storage and release of water from seasonal snow covers constitute critical components of the hydrological cycle in many parts of the world, affecting water availability, vegetation patterns, ecosystems, and weather. Measuring, modeling, and understanding the processes that control deposition and ablation dynamics of snow provide ample
research challenges, especially in complex mountainous terrain.

The 4th International Conference on Snow Hydrology (SnowHydrology2024) will provide an exceptional opportunity to discuss recent advances in all aspects of snow hydrology in a dedicated conference setting, including snow cover processes, distribution dynamics, model development, operational snowmelt forecasting and data assimilation, remote sensing of snow, new experimental method, climate change effects on snow water resources, snow-vegetation interactions, and snow ecohydrology. SnowHydrology2024 is the event to meet your international peers and exchange latest ideas in a focused and informal setting. SnowHydrology2024 will be hosted in Grenoble, France, in the foothills of the Alps not far from the famous Mont-Blanc.

Submission of abstracts will be open from 15 September to 15 October 2023.

Organizers will solicit abstracts on all aspects of snow hydrology without predefining thematic sessions. A program will be organized into topical blocks based on the received abstracts. SnowHydrology2024 will also include poster sessions to encourage focused research discussions and networking.

Fulfilling the Trust Responsibility to Indian Tribes in the Stewardship of Federal Lands and Waters
2023-10-13
Online: 9:00-11:00 am HDT, 11:00 am - 1:00 pm AKDT, 3:00-5:00 pm EDT

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is hosting the consultations and engagement sessions on advancing co-stewardship as outlined in the Joint Secretarial Order 3403.

On November 21, 2022, in coordination with the Department of Interior and the Department of Agriculture, JSO 3403 was amended to include the Department of Commerce. The purpose of JSO 3403 is to ensure Federal lands and waters are managed in a manner that protects the treaty, religious, subsistence, and cultural interests of federally recognized Indian tribes, including the Native Hawaiian Community, with an emphasis on co-stewardship. NOAA is implementing the directives of JSO 3403 and developing co-stewardship opportunities with federally recognized tribes and Native Hawaiian Community. NOAA is interested in working with tribal members and Native Hawaiians to build our collective understanding of stewardship and co-stewardship and identify ways to advance the goals of JSO 3403 at NOAA and within the Department of Commerce. As part of this process, NOAA would benefit from consultations and engagement on a number of issues related to JSO 3403.

NOAA will hold three formal consultations for tribal representatives on the following dates/times:

  • 3 October 2023, 1:00-3:00 pm EDT
  • 4 October 2023, 2:00-4:00 pm EDT
  • 13 October 2023, 3:00-5:00 pm EDT

NOAA will hold an engagement for Native Hawaiian representatives on the following dates/times:

  • 5 October 2023, 3:00-5:00 pm EDT (9:00-11:00 am Hawa'i)

At just over 1 million square nautical miles in size and 66 percent unmapped as of January 2023, Alaska's ocean waters are the least mapped relative to any other U.S. state. The existing maps are sparse and predate modern mapping technologies, leaving much unknown about the Alaska seafloor and its impacts on navigation, fisheries, hazards, and more. Seascape Alaska is a collaborative project to fully map coastal and ocean waters throughout the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone.

Please join IARPC Collaborations for a webinar on this exciting mapping campaign. Seascape Alaska includes efforts to not only gather bathymetric data, but also understand the habitat, seafloor, archaeological, biological, chemical, and other oceanic attributes. Recently endorsed as a UN Ocean Decade Action, it is a collaboration among federal, Tribal, state, and non-governmental partners, and is in support of the 2020 National Strategy for Mapping, Exploring, and Characterizing the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. This national strategy, referred to as the National Ocean Mapping, Exploration, and Characterization (or NOMEC) Strategy, is an ambitious multi-decadal plan to advance ocean science and technology in the United States through ocean mapping, exploration, and characterization.

Speakers Meredith Westington (NOAA Integrated Ocean and Coastal Mapping), Caroline Wilkinson (NOAA Office of Coast Survey), Sam Candio (NOAA Ocean Exploration), and Cheryl Morrison (USGS Eastern Ecological Science Center) will provide an overview of Seascape Alaska and introduce some recent accomplishments and upcoming plans. There will be time for discussion and questions.

Post-Human Dialogues: Rethinking Human-Nature Relations in and through the Arctic
2023-10-10 - 2023-10-12
Rovaniemi, Finland

The Arctic Centre at the University of Lapland invites researchers at any level to submit proposals for the first Critical Arctic Studies Symposium on the theme “Post-Human Dialogues: Rethinking Human-Nature Relations in and through the Arctic”.

We live in the age of polycrisis (or permacrisis), characterised by the combination of long-term, complex and intertwined risks related, inter alia, to health, energy, climate change and economic shocks. New imaginaries, practices and knowledge are necessary to cope with this situation. Although the Arctic is often viewed as a showcase of ongoing global change, research on Arctic politics and governance tends to be very state-centric, and it often overlooks how non-state actors and non-human agents shape those processes. To challenge traditional approaches, this symposium invites critical, interdisciplinary perspectives that seek to expand our understanding of human-nature relations in and through the Arctic. The Symposium aims to reflect on and explore novel notions and approaches to the human-nature relationship from various onto-epistemological, normative, and methodological perspectives. We welcome papers discussing post-human approaches to Arctic politics from the perspective of social sciences, humanities, law, geography, and related fields.

Important Dates

  • Submission of abstracts: until 31 March 2023.
  • Notification regarding abstract acceptance: 30 April 2023.
  • Publication of the symposium program: 15 June 2023.
  • Submission of full papers: until 1 October 2023.

Speakers: Scott Handel (NOAA Climate Prediction Center) & Rick Thoman (Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy)
2023-10-10
Online: 11:00 am - 12:00 pm AKDT, 3:00-4:00 pm EDT

El Niño is back and is making news. Beyond the headlines, what does that mean for Alaska and beyond? Scott Handel with NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center will provide a broad overview: what is El Niño, how does it relate to La Niña, and how do the variations in equatorial Pacific ocean temperatures influence weather and seasonal climate across much of the globe. Rick Thoman with ACCAP will provide a look at how past El Niño events have played out for Alaska weather and climate and finish up with the official climate outlooks for the upcoming winter.

Please register for this event.
