Workshop Sessions:

The workshop sessions will consist of 6 talks, with each talk 15 minutes in length including Q/A. The topics will cover a broad range of topics from the Earth system to social sciences related to climate extremes and including extreme events and global circulations.

    Chair: Tomohito Yamada, Hokkaido University, Japan; Jin-Ho Yoon, GIST, Korea
  2. Interaction between Nature and Society: Modeling and Policies
    Chair: Min-Hui Lo, National Taiwan University, Taiwan; Shinichiro Nakamura, Nagoya University
  3. Short-/mid-range Hydrologic Forecast and Data Assimilation
    Chair: David Cedric, JPL/NASA, USA; Kei Yoshimura, University of Tokyo, Japan
  4. Satellite Remote Sensing for Extreme Monitoring
    Chair: JT Reager, JPL, USA; Shinta Seto, Nagasaki University, Japan

Open Science Sessions:

  1. Open ISIMIP Session
