Dear colleagues,
This year EGU started an experiment of highlighting sessions with a
strong interdisciplinary character through a new programme group called
"Interdisciplinar Events" (IE). In short, IE looks for links between
disciplines in a coordinated and coherent effort, trying to create new
approaches that would not be possible if handled separately.
For 2017 we are proposing the following 4 IE themes:
IE1 Arctic Environmental Change: Threats and Opportunities
IE2 Citizen-Science
IE3 Big Data in the Geosciences
IE4 Communicating and Mitigating Natural Risks
Please consider if you could submit a session to one of the IE themes.
We hope that IE will help bridge between communities and generate fun
discussions!
Sessions can be proposed at:
http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2017/provisionalprogramme/IE
and as always for EGU, all that is required at this stage are the names
of 2-3 conveners (with a spread in country, age and gender), a session
title, and a short session description.
In addition for IE, we kindly ask to identify a Programme group that
becomes the scientific leader of the event. Accepted IE sessions will be
part of the session programme of the scientific leader in addition to
the IE programme. You can indicate other relevant other Programme groups
in the session description or comment box.
The deadline is unfortunately soonish, next week Friday, 9 September.
Looking forward to exciting proposals!
With best wishes,
Susanne
