The Hub at AMOS 2024

January 31, 2024

Next week, climate scientists from across Australia are coming together for the 30th annual Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society (AMOS) conference.  

The NESP Climate Systems Hub is again pleased to sponsor the AMOS annual conference with hub scientists taking part across the program in Canberra from 5-9 February. Events range from workshops on co-design convened by hub scientists and knowledge brokers to early career research events designed to empower the next generation of climate practitioners. 

Open to the public is the Climate Tipping Points public lecture Monday 5 February at 6:30pm. CSIRO and hub scientists Dr Michael Grose and Dr Pep Canadell will join world leading experts to discuss what global tipping points mean for Australia.

Across the week, the hub’s science will feature among the best in Australia. Hub projects and scientists can be seen everyday as highlighted below:
