Dear Cryolist members

 

 

Thank you for spreading the word about Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS)'s Online conference on Earth Observation and Remote Sensing applications in Svalbard. The main aim of this conference is to provide a social experience to the cryospheric research community by bringing together scientists in these weird times when most of the field campaigns in Svalbard have been cancelled due to global pandemic of COVID-2019. 

 

We have now published a full programme of conference on our website: https://sios-svalbard.org/RS_OnlineConference2020

Keynotes talks will be given by representatives of the European Space Agency (ESA), Arctic Amplification project and Finnish Meteorological Institute. Special sessions have been organized to provide an overview of EO and RS activities supported by SIOS via SIOS-ACCESS, SIOS-SESS and recently launched airborne campaigns in Svalbard. The conference would also cover talks from MOSAiC's remote sensing activities, NORCE, Norwegian Ice Services, and Norwegian Space Agency (NoSA).
