CFMIP/WCRP/ICTP Conference on Cloud Processes, Circulation and Climate
Sensitivity

The CFMIP/WCRP/ICTP Conference on Cloud Processes, Circulation and
Climate Sensitivity will be held 4-7 July 2016 at the International
Center for Theoretical Physics, Trieste, Italy. This CFMIP/WCRP/ICTP
international conference will focus on the theme of the WCRP Grand
Challenge on Clouds, Circulation and Climate Sensitivity, in addition to
addressing other ongoing CFMIP activities.

The four-day conference will contain oral and poster sessions on:

- Modeling and observational constraints on cloud feedbacks, adjustments
and climate sensitivity, including the role of moist convection in
cloud feedbacks

- Cloud/circulation/precipitation coupling and its variability in
present and future climates, including hydrological extremes and ITCZ
and storm track changes.

- Process based evaluation of clouds and cloud controlling factors in
climate models using fine scale models and observations, including
satellite simulators.

- How will the organization of cloud systems interact with climate
change?

- Coordination of CFMIP and Grand Challenge activities with CMIP6.

The deadline for abstract submissions is April 15, 2016.

Please note that PhD students and early career scientists may be
interested to also attend the ICTP Summer School on Aerosol-Cloud
Interactions which takes place the week preceeding the conference: June
27-July 1. The tuition is by Wojciech W. Grabowski, Chris Bretherton,
Corinne Hoose, Anna Possner, Adrian Tompkins and Fabien Solmon and there
are hands-on lab classes conducting experiments with the "baby-EULAG"
model. There are no course fees, but availability of places is strictly
limited - to apply see http://indico.ictp.it/event/7614/
