Location: Quebec City
Date: April 12-13, 2007
This workshop is co-hosted by the Quebec Branch of the Canadian Water
Resources Assocation (CWRA) and the Canadian Society for Hydrological
Sciences (CSHS), and is intended to provide the latest information on
low flows practice and research, especially as it pertains to
preditions in ungauged basins.
- Further details are available from the CWRA website.
The AGU 2007 Joint Assembly
will be held on May 22-25, 2007 in Acupulco, Mexico. A special Union
Session on drought has been organized; the session will bring together
paleoclimatologists, climatologists, oceanographers and those
interested in drought impacts on people and nature, to share results on
the role of the Pacific Ocean in the genesis of persistent
(multi-decadal to longer) arid periods in the Americas and the impacts
of such droughts.
The 2007 CMOS/CGU/AMS conference was held in St. John's, NL, May 28-June 1, 2007. Presentations by DRI network researchers can be found on the Presentations and Publications page.

The 60th Annual National Conference of the Canadian Water Resources Association (CWRA) will take place June 25-28 in Saskatoon, SK. The theme of this year's conference is Science and Technology: Implications for Water Management. Further information is available from the Conference Website or the CWRA Homepage.
The 2007 International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics General Assembly will be held in Perugia, Italy from July 2-13, 2007. Sessions of interest to DRI researchers include Session JMS009 (Hydrological Cycle, Precipitation and Precipitation Systems) and Session JMS015 (Mid-latitude Droughts in a Changing Climate)
The Soil Moisture Active
Passive (SMAP) Science Workshop will be held on July 9-10, 2007 at the
Hyatt Arlington, Virginia. The workshop has three purposes: 1) to
evaluate the science that can be accomplished by the SMAP mission as
described by the NRC Decadal Study, 2) articulate clarifications of
design or intent that might be required due to the brevity with which
the Decadal survey described the mission, and 3) to describe what other
measurements from research or operational satellites are necessary to
achieve the science expected of the SMAP mission.
Registration and accommodation information as well as a draft agenda
can be found at the conference
website.
The 28th Canadian Symposium on Remote Sensing will be held October 28-November 1, 2007 in Ottawa, ON. The deadline for Abstract submissions has been extended to March 6, 2007. Further information can be found on the conference website.
