Dear all,
You are cordially invited to attend the 10th Workshop on Remote Sensing of Land Ice and Snow of the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories (EARSeL), which will be held at the Institute of Geography, University of Bern, Switzerland, from 06 - 08 February 2023.
Further information are available at: https://www.earsel.org/SIG/Snow-Ice/workshop/call.php
Registration and abstract submission is now open at the conference management system: https://www.conftool.net/EARSeL-WS-LISSIG-2023-Bern/
Due date for abstract submission: October 15, 2022
Authors notification: November 15, 2022
Preliminary program: December 15, 2022
The theme of the workshop is: Remote Sensing of the Cryosphere - methods and applications from regional to global scale
This workshop will focus on the latest developments in remote sensing of land ice and snow. Presentations are encouraged on all fields of research and applications with the focus on snow and ice as proxy for a changing cryosphere, methods for retrieving cryospheric parameters from various types of remote sensing data, theoretical basis of inversion methods and their application, state of the art of retrieval algorithms including deep learning, data assimilation of remote sensing data and in situ observations in process models, and current and planned sensors for snow and ice. Half of a day will be dedicated to the activities from ESA (CCI+) and EUMETSAT.
Papers will be presented orally and as posters. Contributions must comply with one of the workshop topics specified below. Please indicate under which session topic your contribution shall be presented.
Preliminary session topics
- Glaciers and Ice Caps
- Snow cover (regional to global scale)
- Snow and permafrost
- Snow hydrology
- Albedo of the cryosphere
- Cryosphere and climate
- Cryospheric modelling and data assimilation
- Airborne and ground-based observation methods
- New technologies (sensors/methods)
- ESA CCI+ snow
- EUMETSAT operational services
- Educational programs related to snow and ice
We are looking forward to welcome you in Bern in February 2023!
All the best,
Stefan and Céline (on behalf of the organizing committee)
