This NSF- and NASA-sponsored meeting hosts transdisciplinary and societa lly critical science focused on marine ice-sheet and adjacent earth systems , with particular emphasis on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS). Similar to past years, registration and abstraction submission will open in early J uly and the abstract deadline will be in August. The WAIS Workshop will imm ediately follow the 2019 Interdisciplinary Antarctic Earth Sciences meeting from October 13-15, also at Camp Cedar Glen.
The meeting will follow a similar format as past meetings with a single session style and panel di scussions following each scientific program session. This year we will be a dding new features to the WAIS Workshop to increase accessibility for the w ider community and to continue and push forward our community’s ongoing dis cussions surrounding diversity, inclusion, and retention. More details on t hese programs will be announced along with session themes, and registration , travel support, and abstract deadlines in the coming months.
We wan t to encourage the participation of graduate students and early career scie ntists, as well as scientists in fields relevant to West Antarctic Ice Shee t system, such as biologists, atmospheric scientists, computer scientists, and engineers.
