 lli Dansgaard (1922 – 2011) was a pioneer of isotope glaciology and ice-cor

 nding the climate system.</p><h4><strong>The symposium consists of two part
 s:</strong></h4><ul><li>A scientific symposium on Monday and Wednesday in t
 he classic conference style with scientific presentations by both invited k
 eynote speakers and participants selected based on submitted abstracts. We 
 particularly welcome contributions within Willi Dansgaard's work areas: cli
 mate reconstructions by isotope measurements, ice-flow modelling and dating
 , and the study of abrupt climate change.</li><li>A symposium with dual foc
 us on Willi Dansgaard’s life and work, and highlights of recent climate res
 earch takes up the Tuesday, Willi Dansgaard’s birthday. In the afternoon, w
 e conclude with a formal celebration session with invited participants from
  the Royal Family, the Danish and Greenlandic political system, university 
 leadership, research foundations, and Willi Dansgaard’s family, friends, an
 d colleagues, followed by a reception and dinner.</li></ul><p>Invited speak
 ers include Jim White (US), Valérie Masson-Delmotte (F), Dania Achermann (D
