Conference Description
The Radiation and Climate GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Significant uncertainties remain in our understanding of the climate system and its response to anthropogenic perturbations. Much of this can be attributed to the complex interplay of radiation, clouds, atmospheric composition and dynamics across scales. The 2025 Gordon Research Conference on Radiation and Climate will focus on key uncertainties in radiation and climate science with particular emphasis on novel approaches to bridge observations and modelling across scales to advance our physical understanding and predictive capabilities. This is timely, with global Earth observations and high-resolution models approaching process scales. The programme will capitalize on novel Earth observations as well as the transformation of global climate modelling through computational advances and AI.
The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include 9 sessions and the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. Please check back regularly for updates to this information.
