Online Tipping Points Discussion Series: Dampening effects on positive social tipping points and strategies to reduce them

04 September 2025

Tipping points

Join AIMES, the Earth Commission, Future Earth, and the WCRP’s Safe Landing Climates Lighthouse Activity for a webinar exploring the latest scientific insights on positive social tipping points and the barriers they can face. This discussion will bring together experts to examine examples and how science and policy can address them.

  • When ?  17 September 15:00-16:30 CEST

Call for Contributions – 2025 WGNE Blue Book

28 August 2025

WGNE blue book 2025

WCRP, WMO & WGNE invite submissions on advances in Earth System Modelling, from coupled models and forecasting to AI applications. The WGNE Blue Book publication is an attempt to foster an early interchange of information among scientists developing numerical models for the purpose of climate simulation and for forecasting on various timescales.
The contributions are requested as PDF files with a maximum length of two pages (including references and any diagram, figures, or tables). Deadlines: 15 September 2025

Only five days left to submit your abstract for the Climate and Cryosphere Open Science Conference 2026!

27 August 2025

CliC open science 2026

As a pan-cryospheric meeting, the CliC OSC will address all elements of the cryosphere and its climate connections. We invite scientists, researchers, scholars, practitioners, educators, and stakeholders to come together at the nexus of climate and cryosphere to learn from one another, identify knowledge gaps, and address emerging challenges. From modellers and observationalists to social scientists and community organizers, we welcome leading and emerging experts as well as early career researchers (ECRs) to present their work and discuss the state of cryospheric science.

Please note the following important deadlines: 

  • Abstract submission: 31 August 
  • Apply for a CliC-funded travel grant: 31 August 
  • Apply for an IGS-funded ECR travel grant: 30 September 
  • Early Bird Registration: 11 November

Open Call for Self-Nomination for Membership of the Global Extremes Platform (GEP) Working Group on Event Attribution

11 August 2025

RIfS logo

This open call to fill vacant position(s) within the  WCRP Global Extremes Platform (GEP) Working Group on Event Attribution is targeted at the Global South and/or other underrepresented regions. The Working Group on Event Attribution aims to support activities that will foster extreme event attribution collaboration and research to provide information globally, particularly in an operational context, that is clear, defensible, traceable, and consistently interpreted, including development of best practice guidelines, and to increase the capacity for event attribution in the Global South and underrepresented regions.

 To find out more and to apply, visit the Open Call website.

WCRP and IPCC join forces to discuss high-impact events, tipping points and their consequences

06 August 2025

The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are joining forces to convene a co-sponsored workshop on “High-impact events, tipping points and their consequences” in Paris, France, from 26–28 November. The workshop will bring together leading experts from around the globe, covering many disciplines, in support of the 7th IPCC Assessment Report (AR7) process. The workshop is by invitation only.

To learn more, read the article published in MeteoWorld and visit the workshop website.
