Workshop format and carbon footprint

The workshop will take place from 29 August - 2 September 2022 in parallel in four locations:

  • Campus Pierre et Marie Curie, Sorbonne University, Paris, France
  • Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, USA
  • Ocean University of China, Qingdao, China
  • CSIRO, Hobart, Australia

Each day a summary session (1-2 hours) will be held in videoconference.

The workshop is devoted, among others, to better understand the impacts of fine ocean dynamics on the climate systems. In order to reduce carbon emissions, we recommend intercontinental flights only for keynote speakers, students, and young postdocs. This recommendation (that should not be an obligation) is meant to sharply reduce the carbon footprint of the conference. The reduction in carbon emissions will be estimated quantitatively.

This organization will be also effective in maintaining the workshop in case travel restriction due to Covid will be in place, by only canceling oversea trips.
