 g>The YOPP Final Summit website has been launched now and the link for abst
 ract submission is open.</strong><br /> <br /> The YOPP Final Summit is the
  apex of the decade-long Polar Prediction Project initiated by the World Me
 teorological Organization’s World Weather Research Programme in 2013. The c
 onference aims to review progress, share key findings and success stories, 
 and discuss and shape the legacy of the Polar Prediction Project. The summi
 t will bring together polar science experts from operational prediction cen
 tres, academia and research institutes, government, and corporate represent
 atives as well as northern communities and users of polar prediction servic
 es. &nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Contributors are invi
 ted to submit their abstracts on their research and achievements produced i
 n the frame of PPP and YOPP, on the below topics: </strong></p><ul style="t
 ext-align: justify;"><li>Advancements in polar prediction during YOPP (2017
 –2019) and their operationalization;</li><li>Building international coopera
 tion amongst the polar prediction community;</li><li>Paving the way for the
  legacy of the Polar Prediction Project, to enable environmental safety in 
 the Arctic and Antarctic in the future;</li><li>Representation of polar pro
 cesses in numerical models, with a focus on coupling of the atmosphere, oce
 an and sea ice;</li><li>Ocean and sea ice modelling and services;</li><li>T
 he MOSAiC expedition and other polar observation campaigns;</li><li>Supersi
 te multi-variate observations and process studies (YOPPsiteMIP);</li><li>Ob
 serving System Experiments (OSE) and reanalyses in polar regions;</li><li>T
 eleconnections linking polar weather to mid-latitudes predictability;</li><
 li>Science to services: tailoring polar forecasting products and services t
 o meet user needs; and</li><li>Societal and economic implications of access
 ible, relevant, and useable forecasts.</li></ul><h3 style="text-align: just

 lign: justify;"><strong>Participation of Early Career Researchers (ECRs) is
  encouraged. </strong> A third Polar Prediction School will precede the YOP
 P Final Summit from 27–30 April 2022 in Rimouski, QC, Canada. Also, PPP Ear
 ly Career Scientist fellowships will provide ECRs with the opportunity to s
 howcase their research and networking with senior mentors at the YOPP Final
  Summit. For information how to apply to become a YOPP Final Summit Fellow 
 (self-nominations are welcome) and to participate in the Polar Prediction S
 chool, please find more information on the <a href="https://yoppfinalsummit
