SUMMARY:2023 GEO AquaWatch Biennial 1-day Meeting: Toward Water Quality Forecasting
DESCRIPTION:Water Quality Information for the Benefit of Society\nEarth Observation of inland and coastal water quality: Toward water quality forecasting\n13 November 2023\, University of South Florida St. Petersburg\, St. Petersburg\, Florida\, USA  \na meeting of GEO AquaWatch in conjunction with the IOCS Meeting \n \nGEO AquaWatch invites you to a one-day workshop of the inland and coastal water quality community in conjunction with the ocean color science community.  \nParticipants are now invited to submit abstracts for both oral and coastal presentations. Abstracts will be accepted for consideration until April 30\, 2023. A broad range of Earth Observation topics are welcome from algorithm development to understanding the needs of the user community..  Early Career water quality professionals and scientists from groups and geographic regions under-represented in science are especially encouraged to apply.   \nOur workshop theme is Toward Water Quality Forecasting. \nThe use of Earth Observation (EO) for water quality applications is rapidly advancing. Inland and near-shore coastal environments deliver multiple ecosystem services that benefit society and yet only a fraction of global inland water systems are routinely monitored for water quality.  Observing inland and near-coastal water bodies makes remote sensing a valuable source of data on water quality and ecosystem condition at local and global scales.  \nThis workshop will be an opportunity for the community to respond to outcomes of the recent United Nations Water Conference and Water Action Agenda to reach sustainable development goals (SDG 6\, and related).   Other global initiatives like the UN Ocean Decade\, the Convention on Wetlands\, and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction\, all hinge on better water management coordination and decision-making to benefit society. \nWater quality forecasting contributes to improved water management\, climate studies\, and achieving SDGs. Focusing our workshop on EO  multiscale forecasting of inland and near-shore coastal water conditions will be timely. Discussions of forecasting tools and observing opportunities provided by the upcoming PACE and GLIMR and Australian AquaWatch CSIRO missions are especially relevant in prioritising future GEO AquaWatch activities\, and this will be a workshop outcome.  \nGEO AquaWatch has a strong emphasis on Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) policies and these principles will be encouraged in setting the programme. Meeting participants will be expected to be aware of and follow GEO AquaWatch’s new Code of Conduct during discussions.    \nMeeting Logistics: When: 13 November 2023; 08:30-17:00 local time.   Fees: none  Travel Funds: none \nWhere: University of South Florida St Petersburg Campus (22 miles and 23 minutes southwest of Tampa International Airport)\, location is likely to be the University Student Center (campus map)  NOTE: there are several local USF campuses\, this one is in St. Petersburg!  \nAbstract Submission Deadline 30th April 2023.  Abstract Guidelines. \nRegistration and Abstract Submission Form

SUMMARY:2023 International Ocean Colour Science Meeting
DESCRIPTION:2023 International Ocean Colour Science Meeting\nSt. Petersburg\, FL\, USA\, 14-17 November 2023\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fifth International Ocean Colour Science (IOCS) meeting will be convened by the International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG) in partnership with the University of South Florida\, NASA\, and NOAA\, and will take place from 14-17 November 2023 in St. Petersburg\, Florida\, USA \n\n\nThe primary focus of the IOCS meetings is to serve as a venue for the ocean colour community to communicate their views\, ideas\, concerns and issues with the satellite agencies. The programme for the IOCS-2023 meeting will include invited keynote lectures\, agency talks\, breakout workshops\, poster sessions and community Town Halls. It is anticipated training events and side meetings will also be scheduled. \nThe overarching theme for IOCS-2023 is “Impact and Value of Ocean Colour Observations in a Changing World: Water in all its Colours” with the overall goal of nurturing a strong global user community for ocean colour science and applications\, and fostering exchange between the ocean colour research community and international space agencies with an interest in ocean colour science. \nImportant Dates \n13 May – 14 Oct 2023: Regular Registration \n15 Oct – 12 Nov 2023: Late Registration \n15 Sept 2023: Deadline for travel support & poster abstracts \n13 Nov 2023: Training courses & GEO AquaWatch Team Meeting \n14 – 17 Nov 2023: IOCS Meeting

SUMMARY:5th Space for Hydrology Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Fifth Space for Hydrology Workshop will take place in Lisbon\, Portugal\, from Monday 27 November to Friday 1 December 2023. \nThe European Space Agency\, in the context of the “Earth Observations Science for Society” Programme\, and CNES are organising a sequel joint event to Hydrospace2021 and EO4Water2020\, called 5th Space for Hydrology Workshop. This time around the Hydrospace Workshop is organised in collaboration with GEWEX (and other sponsors to be confirmed)\, seeking opportunities to explore joint solutions with a broader view on key science questions for Research and Development\, up to Operational use of remote sensing information. The aim of getting together during 5 days in a brainstorming workshop-style is to strengthen the collaboration between the four critical water communities: in situ\, modelling and space observation scientists as well as “non-scientific” users such as water managers to address the needs of the application community. \nPlease SAVE-THE-DATE! \nSoon you will be invited to submit your abstract(s) for an oral or a poster presentation.\nThe deadline for submitting your abstract(s) will be 3 September 2023.  (Mark that date too!) \nNo participation fees will be charged. Participants are expected to finance their own travel and accommodation expenses. The working language of the workshop is English. \nFor more information and to stay updated on the event\, please visit the event page \nhttps://www.hydrospace2023.org \nThanks in advance for saving the date\, your future contribution(s) and looking forward to see you in Lisbon. \nBest regards\,\n– Jérôme Benveniste and Jean-François Crétaux\,  on behalf of the Hydrospace-2023 to-be-consolidated Organising Committee
