Join us live at: http://www.esa.int/spaceinvideos/esalive for the 4th DUE Permafrost User Workshop being held at ESA ESRIN, Frascati, Italy the 11-13 February 2014.
Workshop agenda at: http://www.climate-cryosphere.org/meetings/due-permafrost-2014/agenda
User workshops are an important tool for the interaction between the scientific user’s community and the remote sensing experts. The DUE Permafrost team and ESA held three workshops (2010 to 2012). ESA, CliC and IPA are funding the 4th DUE Permafrost User Workshop. This ESA-CliC-GTNP-/IPA-DUE Permafrost workshop
– will bring together a multidisciplinary community working on permafrost-related remote sensing, field monitoring and permafrost-related modelling and climate modeling.
– will collect and discuss the up-to-date User requirements related to monitoring and modelling.
– will contribute to the update of the IGOS Cryosphere Theme Report (2007) for permafrost.
– will feed into current efforts of GTN-P to build a permafrost observing component into the Sustaining Arctic Observing Network (SAON).
The Workshop is sponsored by the Climate and Cryosphere Project (CliC) and Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost, International Permafrost Association (GTN-P/IPA) and the European Space Agency (ESA).
