IMPACTS WORLD 2013 will take place in Potsdam, Germany from 27-30 May 2013. It is organised by ALTER-Net partner PIK, in collaboration with several other organisations . For details see the conference website.
The IMPACTS WORLD 2013 conference aims to develop a new vision for climate impacts research by laying the foundations for regular, community-driven syntheses of climate change impact analyses. It will bring together leading scientists and decision makers from local to international levels.
A broad array of scientific knowledge about the impacts of climate change has been gathered over the last decades. Yet, in many respects it remains fragmentary, and a quantitative synthesis of climate impacts, including consistent estimates of uncertainties, is still missing.
In light of the great wealth of existing knowledge and continuous need for policy-relevant research results, our community is perfectly placed to combine our individual contributions to initiate a coordinated climate impact research agenda.
Note that there is a call for papers with a closing date of 1 Jan 2013.
