SUMMARY:Methane in a Changing Arctic - CAGE International Conference
LOCATION:Tromsø\, Norway
DESCRIPTION:<p>We are happy to announce the <strong>‘Methane in a Changing Arctic’ Inte
 rnational Conference</strong> that will be hosted by the <strong>Centre for
  Arctic Gas Hydrate, Environment and Climate (CAGE)</strong> at <strong>UiT
  – The Arctic University of Norway</strong>, <strong>Tromsø</strong>, betwe
 en<strong> 14-16<sup>th</sup> September 2022</strong>.</p><p>This conferenc
 e aims to bring together scientists working on all aspects of Arctic methan
 e and its role in the global carbon cycle. It will provide an interdiscipli
 nary forum for discussion and exchange of knowledge relating to our current
  understanding of these complex systems and their response to and impact on
 , the rapid environmental and climatic changes that characterise the Arctic
 .</p><p><strong>CONFERENCE THEMES</strong></p><p>The conference will addres
 s themes including the formation, storage, cycling, transport, release and 
 budgets of methane through the Arctic geo-, hydro-, cryo- and atmosphere si
 nce the onset of Northern Hemisphere glaciation and towards the future. The
 re will be a strong emphasis on integration of these themes, and we encoura
 ge all relevant contributions to the following topics:</p><ul><li><strong>M
 ethane in the geosphere:</strong> subsurface thermogenic, (a-)biogenic and 
 methane stores and sinks</li><li><strong>Methane in the hydrosphere:</stron
 g> methane processes and budgets in marine and lacustrine settings</li><li>
 <strong>Methane in the cryosphere:</strong> methane dynamics in ice sheets 
 and permafrost</li><li><strong>Methane in the atmosphere:</strong> methane 
 source, sinks, and budget in the atmosphere</li><li><strong>Microbial cycli
 ng of methane:</strong> the role of microbes in methane budgets</li><li><st
 rong>Past methane histories:</strong> past methane processes and budgets as
  analogues for future climate scenarios</li></ul><p><strong>FIND OUT MORE</
