\n

It’s that time of year again. Fall AGU<\/a> is the biggest gathering of geophysical scientists in the world (~24,000 attendees) and while it includes planetary science, seismology and magnetophysics, it is swamped by earth scientists, whose work covers the atmosphere, oceans, cryosphere, climate, natural hazards and paleoclimate.<\/p>\n

As in previous years, many sessions and most of the keynotes will be available On-Demand<\/a> (which is free but you do need to register) and there is a E-poster facility<\/a> that lets non-attendees view some of the posters.<\/p>\n

Some interesting sessions related to discussions at RealClimate will be the “Betting on Climate Change<\/a>” (Mon, posters), “El Ni\u00f1o: Global Anomalies and Societal Impacts at Regional Scale<\/a>” (Wed, Union Channel On-demand), and “The Up\u2010Goer Five Challenge: A Fun and Radical Way to Distill Your Science”<\/a> (Fri). Of course, there are always the usual paleo-climate (e.g. Climate of the Common Era<\/a>), model evaluation, and observational sessions to follow.<\/p>\n

Keynotes from Isaac Held,<\/a>\u00a0 Christine Hulbe,<\/a> Nathalie Cabrol<\/a>, Daniel Jacob <\/a>and Bette Otto-Bleisner<\/a> all sound promising, covering tropical cyclones, the last glacial maximum, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, air quality and astrobiology (though probably not all at once).<\/p>\n

If there are any other specific sessions or talks, you’d like to advertise or comment on, put them in the comments. Discussion on Twitter is using the #AGU16<\/a> hashtag. If anyone wants to write up some sessions or highlights, send them along and we’ll post them.<\/p>\n\n<\/div> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
