AJANKOHTAISTA

National Hydrological and Climate Modelling Seminar

20.11.2024 Finnish Meteorological Institute

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to National Modelling Seminar 2024, which this year combines the annual seminar series on hydrological and climate modelling. Our seminar aims to bring together experts to discuss the latest advances and challenges in these interconnected fields. The seminar is organised by the Hydrology division of Water Association Finland, universities, and research institutes. Topics include

  • water resources, resilience and restoration
  • water cycle in climate, drainage basins and land ecosystems
  • climate change impacts on the water cycle
  • extreme events
  • hydrological, climate and ecosystem modelling
  • water cycle interconnections with vegetation greenhouse gas fluxes, soil carbon, nutrients and various chemical compounds relevant to environmental sustainability and protection

This seminar will provide opportunities to present your recent work and gain valuable insights and foster collaborations. Your participation would be greatly appreciated and contribute to the success of this event. We look forward to welcoming you to this exciting seminar.

Time: Wed 20.11.2024, 09:00–17:00

Venue: Finnish Meteorological Institute (www.fmi.fi), Dynamicum building, Brainstorm auditorium (Entrance: Floor -1 where Café Arktis is located), Erik Palmenin aukio 1, 00560 Helsinki

The seminar is sponsored by Water Association Finland and Finnish Meteorological Institute, including lunch. We will have an informal seminar dinner for participants (at own cost, time and location to be announced later).
