Association of Polar Early Career Scientists

 

The 27th International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) General Assembly will be held in July 2019 in Montréal, Canada. 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of IUGG. IACS will host or co-host more than 30 symposia between 9 -13 July, with a wide range of snow and ice topics. See list below.

Waleed Abdalati, University of Colorado, USA, will give the prestigious Union Lecture in Cryospheric Sciences.
