[CRYOLIST] BEPSII/ECVice 2020 meeting online 24-28 August - A forum for sea ice biogeochemistry

BEPSII/ECVice 2020 meeting online 24-28 August


Joint BEPSII and ECVice annual meeting is one of the main forum to discuss science highlights but also ongoing and future activities related to sea ice biogeochemistry.  The meeting, originally planned to be held in Hobart, will be hold online, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are inviting our community to engage in new ways. We hope that BEPSII/ECVice 2020 online will be an important space for discussion for sea ice biogeochemistry community, and to keep momentum in our research, at a time of social distancing. BEPSII/ECVice 2020 will also be devoted to gather BEPSII, ECVice and CATCH communities.

Date: 24-28 August 2020. Planning include one all timezone overlapping session per day as well as "round-the-world" discussion sessions (moving along timezones) and an online poster session.

BEPSII/ECVice meeting will be preceded by an Early Carrier Scientist meeting on the 21-07-2020

In additions to task group updates for BEPSII and ECVice, round-the-world discussion will address:
1. Developing a position analysis for the Antarctic
2. Joint BEPSII-CATCH cruise discussion
3. Developing a joined CATCH -BEPSII SCOR working group

Registration is free and open to everybody.  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSebQA-keV2CBUBU4sFEfffzZKw7HRlCtvHW9QSnmOuLSy_KOg/viewform?usp=sf_link
