Please see below for details of an upcoming CLIVASH2k workshop, which wi ll be in collaboration with AntClim21.
Climate Variabi
lity in Antarctica and the Southern Hemisphere in the past 2000 years
Tuesday 4th- Wednesday 5th September 2018
British An
tarctic Survey, Cambridge, UK.
CLIVASH2k is a PAGES 2k proje ct, which aims to improve our understanding of large scale modes of climate variability and the mechanisms and drivers of climate change in Antarctica , the sub-Antarctic and the wider Southern Hemisphere during the past 2000 years. Investigating how large-scale modes of atmospheric circulation, such as the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) and the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillatio n (IPO), influence the climate in Antarctica and the Southern Hemisphere on a regional scale.
AntClim21 is a SCAR research programme which aims to deliver improved regional predictions of key elements of the Antarctic a tmosphere, ocean and cryosphere for the next 20 to 200 years and to underst and the responses of the physical and biological systems to natural and ant hropogenic forcing factors.
These two groups are coming together for a 2-day workshop investigating climate variability in Antarctica and the So uthern Hemisphere over the past 2000 years.
The
workshop goals
The workshop is open to all. We want to engage
a broad spectrum of the scientific community, including paleoclimate both
data gathers (such as ice cores, lake sediments, marine records, and terres
trial records), climatologists and climate modellers.
We especially e ncourage those who wish to actively contribute to the CLIVASH2k and AntClim 21 project goals, including contribution to synthesis products and publicat ions. The workshop will be informative but be prepared to get involved!
Our aim is to review and evaluate our current understanding of the drive rs of Southern Hemisphere climate variability, through short presentations, posters and discussion sessions.

Travel grants: A small number of travel grants will hopefully be available for participants. Priority will be given to Ph D students and those from developing countries. Please indicate when regist ering if you require financial assistance.
Speci al issue: In association with this workshop we have a special issu e of Geosciences. We invite you to submit high quality original research ar ticles and reviews on climate variability in Antarctica and the Southern He misphere over the last millennia.
