It’s that time of year again. #AGU17<\/a> is from Dec 11 to Dec 16 in New Orleans (the traditional venue in San Francisco is undergoing renovations). <\/p>\n

As in previous years, there will be extensive live streams from “AGU On Demand<\/a>” (free, but an online registration is required) of interesting sessions and the keynote lectures from prize-winners and awardees. <\/p>\n

Some potential highlights will be Dan Rather, Baba Brinkman, and Joanna Morgan<\/a>. The E-lightning sessions are already filled with posters<\/a> covering many aspects of AGU science. Clara Deser<\/a>, Bjorn Stevens<\/a>, David Neelin<\/a>, Linda Mearns<\/a> and Thomas Stocker<\/a> are giving some the key climate-related named lectures. The Tyndall Lecture by Jim Fleming<\/a> might also be of interest.<\/p>\n

As usual there are plenty of sessions devoted to public affairs and science communication<\/a>, including one focused on the use of humour in #scicomm (on Friday at 4pm to encourage people to stay to the end I imagine), and a workshop on Tuesday (joint with the ACLU and CSLDF) on legal issues for scientist activists and advocates<\/a>.<\/p>\n

AGU is also a great place to apply for jobs, get free legal advice<\/a>, mingle, and network. <\/p>\n

A couple of us will be there – and we might find time to post on anything interesting we see. If any readers spot us, say hi! <\/p>\n\n<\/div> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
