Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics Announces Three-Week Physics of Climate Change Program

 
Published: 22 August 2007

The Physics of Climate Change program will be at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP) at the University of California, Santa Barbara, April 28-July 11, 2008. KITP programs differ from many conferences and workshops because they create situations where scientists learn from each other and actually do substantive research, often collaborating with other participants. To foster these interactions, KITP encourages all theory participants to stay for at least three weeks; however, the schedule can be flexible.

There will be an associated intensive conference on Frontiers of Climate Science during the second week of the program (May 5-9), and the conference will end with a public science forum focused on some geoengineering proposals to stem global warming.
