- Fourth Nordic Conference on Climate ChangeClimate Change
Climate change refers to a change in the state of the climate that can be identified (e.g., by using statistical tests) by changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties, and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer. Climate change may be due to natural internal processes or external forcings such as modulations of the solar cycles, volcanic eruptions and persistent anthropogenic changes in the composition of the atmosphere or in land use. Note that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), in its Article 1, defines climate change as: 'a change of climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods'. The UNFCCC thus makes a distinction between climate change attributable to human activities altering the atmospheric composition, and climate variability attributa Adaptation: 'From Research to Actions and Transformation'

29 Aug 2016 - Bergen, Norway
The Paris Agreement has created a new momentum that demands climate actions and transformations. This conference seeks to highlight the Nordic dimension.
- 16th EMS Annual Meeting & 11th European Conference on Applied ClimatologyClimatology
can be defined as the science of climate, but is also used in the meaning of the normal state such as a base line over the normal period. Climatology is often taken as the mean value for a given month over, for example, 1961-1990.

http://www.1point5degrees.org.uk/
20 Sep - 22 Sep 2016, Oxford, United Kingdom
This conference will bring together researchers, policy makers, businesses and members of civil society to understand the impacts of warming of 1.5 °C above pre-industrialpre-industrial
Industrial Revolution levels and assess the feasibility of meeting the challenges in the Paris Climate Agreement.
- Fifth International Conference on Climate Change Adaptation 2016 (CCA 2016)

09 Oct 2016, Toronto, Canada
Climate Change Adaptation 2016 - 'Challenges & Issues Adaptation' is an interactive platform to connect and reconnect colleagues around the world.
- FLOODrisk 2016 Conference
http://floodrisk2016.net/
17 Oct - 21 Oct 2016, Lyon, France
FLOODrisk 2016 will explore research advances in flood risk analysis and innovations in flood risk management practice. The conference will consider all aspects of flood risk and will cover the causes of floods, their impacts on people, property and the environment, and portfolios of risk management measuresmeasures
In climate policy, measures are technologies, processes, and practices that contribute to mitigation, for example renewable energy technologies, waste minimization processes and public transport commuting practices..
- World Conference on Climate Change
http://climatechange.conferenceseries.com/scientific-program/
24 Oct - 28 Oct 2016, Valencia, Spain
This conference will be the stand where several extremely important areas tend to be reviewed. Several of these will be climate change, ecosystems, climate dynamics and climate modeling.
Events in 2017
- 27 Feb 2017 Fifth International Conference on Climate ServicesClimate Services
Climate services involve the production, translation, transfer, and use of climate knowledge and information for decision making, policy and planning. The provision of climate information (observational, forecasts or projections) in a way that is relevant to climate-sensitive users, can inform decisions and can reduce the risk of misinterpretation. (ICCS5)
The aim of all conferences has been building the bridge between the production and use of climate services, developing the maturity of climate service practices, and fostering a community of climate service actors.
- 03 Apr - 07 Apr 2017 Climateurope Festival
https://www.climateurope.eu/events-climateurope/festival/
03 Apr - 07 Apr 2017, Valencia, Spain
The first edition of the Climateurope Festival. It will be an opportunity to meet, share ideas, and experience on the state and the future of climate services, climate Observations and Earth-System Modeling in Europe.
- 05 Jun 2017 3rd European Climate Change Adaptation Conference 2017 (ECCA)
http://ecca2017.eu/conference/
The theme of ECCA 2017 is ‘Our Climate Ready Future’. The vision is that this conference will inspire and enable people to work together to discover and deliver positive climate adaptation solutions that can strengthen society, revitalise local economies and enhance the environment.
