DEALINE EXTENSION: Workshop on Uncertainty and Climate Change Adaptation - CALL FOR PAPERS

The deadline for abstract submission on the CIRCLE-2 Joint Initiative on Climate Uncertainties' Workshop has been extended until June 7th 2012.

The main goals of this event are to promote discussion and contribute with scientific insight by calling for the submission of abstracts that respond to the following question:

• How do decision-making processes on climate change adaptation, at the multi-decadal timescale, envision the future and deal with related uncertainties?

Participation is open to all actors (e.g., scientific and communication experts; policy analysts; decision-makers; modellers; economists; etc.) working in the field of uncertainties in climate and climate change adaptation. In order to take part in the workshop, participants must submit an abstract of up to 3 000 characters, including spaces, on the online submission form, by no later than June 7th 2012. After submission, abstracts will be analyzed and selected by the Workshop scientific committee, until June 15th 2012. If selected, authors will be invited to present a full paper by September 21st 2012, to be discussed in Lisbon during November 8th and 9th of 2012.

Selected papers will be part of a Special Issue to be submitted to peer-reviewed journal by April 2013.

The Workshop will be conducted in English and will be held in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, in Lisbon, Portugal. There is no registration fee. Any questions associated with this process should be addressed to Ana Rovisco (acrovisco@fc.ul.pt).
