19-23 September 2016 –
CLIVAR Open Science Conference
The Qingdao National Laboratory for Marine
Science and Technology (QNLM) in China hosted the World Climate Research
Programme (WCRP)’s CLIVAR Open Science Conference “Charting the course for
climate and ocean research”. The Open Science Conference, and the associated
Early Career Symposium and Regional Stakeholder Forum brought together
prominent international scientists and the future generation of scientific
leaders.
Alice Grimm, Dirceu Herdies, Pablo Spennemann, Joao Gerd Z. de Mattos and María Inés Carabajal participated in the event where the collective voice and expertise of the international climate community discussed and contributed to shape the international research agenda on the coupled ocean-atmosphere system. The World Climate Research Programme’s (WCRP) Core Project on Climate and Ocean – CLIVAR - invited the international climate community to review the state of the science, to prioritize international research plans and to initiate new collaborations.
A wide collection of scientists who work in this important area reviewed progress toward improved understanding of the dynamics, the interaction, and the predictability of the coupled ocean-atmosphere system.

The objectives of the CLIVAR Open
Science Conference were to:
- Shape ideas to meet emerging ocean and climate science challenges
- Engage with the future generation of climate scientists
- Identify key climate research and stakeholder issues
- Develop and strengthen collaborations across nations, disciplines and age groups and promote integrative studies
In addition to the
Conference, two other events targeted
specific audiences: the CLIVAR Early Career Scientists Symposium, a 3 day
programme, designed by and for Early Career Scientists; and the Regional
Stakeholder Forum, a one day event bringing together CLIVAR scientists and
practitioners who have an interest in climate science to exchange ideas,
outline requirements and discuss future collaborations with a particular focus
on the Asia-Pacific region.
