International Conference on Tibetan Plateau and High Mountains Energy and Water Exchanges: Climate Impact and Adaptation

Aug 7 - 10, 2023 | Diqing, Yunnan, China

The “International Conference on Tibetan Plateau and High Mountains Energy and Water Exchanges: Climate Impact and Adaptation (TEWEX-CLIMA)” will be held at Diqing, Yunnan, China, from August 7 to 10, 2023. The conference is hosted by the State Key Laboratory of Numerical Modeling for Atmospheric Sciences and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics (LASG), Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

TEWEX-CLIMA is organized by the program “Change of the Land-Air Coupled System over the Tibetan Plateau and Its Global Climate Effect (LASTPIC)”, which is a ten-year flagship program launched by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) in 2014) with major support from the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX) of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP).

Co-organizers also include the Swedish Foundation for International Cooperation in Research and Higher Education (STINT), the State Key Laboratory of Severe Weather (LaSW), Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences (CAMS), Yunnan University and Xiamen University. The conference will consist of several invited plenary lectures, parallel sessions and posters. Lectures by invited speakers will form the core of the agenda.
