SIOS Online Conference 2021 on Remote Sensing in Svalbard

Hello UK Polar Network!

 

The Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS) invites you to join us at the SIOS Online Conference, where applications of remote sensing in Svalbard will be presented. SIOS are consortium of 26 institutions from 9 different countries aiming to develop a regional observing system for Svalbard.

Conference Link: https://sios-svalbard.org/RS_OnlineConference2021

Registration: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUsc-igpj8tHNBkcCL5jPMzt71cTByHTLm8

Dates: 8-10 June 2021

 

The conference will consist of ~50 talks with 7 keynote speakers, alongside a dedicated session for Early Career Researchers (ECRs) to present their work. We will also host an open session of the Remote Sensing Working Group (RSWG) meeting, where you can get involved in discussions on the working group activities.

 

If that wasn’t enough, we will also be hosting dedicated social sessions, including a Svalbard quiz (jointly organized by the EGU Cryosphere, Oceans and Atmospheric Sciences Divisions) and a Gathertown event. To join the Gathertown, please express your interest in the registration process. You will receive additional information on how to join later.

 

We hope to see many of you there!

 

Best wishes,

Will
