SUMMARY:The Willi Dansgaard Centenary Symposium
LOCATION:Copenhagen\, Denmark
DESCRIPTION:We invite the ice-core and climate research community to join a 3-day sympo
 sium in Copenhagen on August 29th-31st, 2022 (https://nbi.ku.dk/english/for
 m/the-willi-dansgaard-centenary-symposium/), hosted by the Ice and Climate 
 Research Group at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen (https://nbi.ku.dk
 /english/research/pice/).\nWilli Dansgaard (1922 – 2011) was a pioneer of i
 sotope glaciology and ice-core-based climate research. The climate agenda m
 akes his research contributions more relevant today than ever, and ice core
 s remain pivotal for understanding the climate system.\nThe symposium consi
 sts of two parts:\n - A scientific symposium on Monday and Wednesday in the
  classic conference style with scientific presentations by both invited key
 note speakers and participants selected based on submitted abstracts. We pa
 rticularly welcome contributions within Willi Dansgaard's work areas: clima
 te reconstructions by isotope measurements, ice-flow modelling and dating, 
 and the study of abrupt climate change.\n - A symposium with dual focus on 
 Willi Dansgaard’s life and work, and highlights of recent climate research 
 takes up the Tuesday, Willi Dansgaard’s birthday. In the afternoon, we conc
 lude with a formal celebration session with invited participants from the R
 oyal Family, the Danish and Greenlandic political system, university leader
 ship, research foundations, and Willi Dansgaard’s family, friends, and coll
 eagues, followed by a reception and dinner.Invited speakers include Jim Whi
 te (US), Valérie Masson-Delmotte (F), Dania Achermann (D), Joel Pedro (AUS)
 , Christo Buizert (US), Michel Crucifix (B), Peter Huybers (US), Minik Rosi
 ng (DK), and Maiken Lolck (DK).\nSubmit an abstract and travel grant applic
 ationAbstract submission deadline is June 1st. A template for abstracts wil
 l be available from this page around May 1st together with an application f
 orm for travel grants.\nSupportThe symposium and travel grants are supporte
 d by a grant from the Carlsberg Foundation, and is supported and co-organiz
 ed by the VILLUM Foundation IceFlow project (https://nbi.ku.dk/english/rese
 arch/pice/projekt-sider/iceflow/), The ChronoClimate project (https://www.c
