Other compartments of the earth system\, and related societal\, ecosystem and human health impact studies are welcome as well. Combined mercury and POPs as well as coupled observation and modelling approaches are especially welcome. The main objectives of this special session are to further the understanding of the sources and fluxes; the quantification and assessment of the processes; mechanisms driving transfer through the marine trophic web; biogeochemical modeling; effects of climate change and changed emissions scenarios; scenarios of mitigation and adaptation to mercury and POP’s pollution\, and impacts on society\, ecosystem and human health. \n\n\n\n*OS3.6 Impacts of anthropogenic pollution on ocean biogeochemistryCamille Richon\, Lars-Eric Heimbürger-Boavida\, Charlotte Laufkötter\, Susan Little \n\n\n\nhttps://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/36174 \n\n\n\nMarine anthropogenic pollution is increasingly recognized as a serious issue of global concern with substantial risks for marine ecosystems\, fisheries\, and food supply to people. Plastic and chemical contaminants are spread on a planetary scale\, and may have devastating impacts on marine ecosystems. Yet\, they remain poorly studied and much is yet to learn about how plastic and chemical contamination impacts marine nutrient cycles and the lower food chain. In this session\, we invite contributions from experimentalists and modellers trying to understand the impacts of plastics as well as chemical contaminants on the biogeochemistry of the oceans. The objective of this session is to share the current research on how the multiple sources of anthropogenic pollution impact marine biogeochemical cycles\, such as pollutant leaching from plastics\, plastic ingestion by marine animals\, and direct contamination of the water by contaminated rivers\, aerosols\, or submarine groundwater. The session would welcome all techniques\, including direct measurements of contaminant fluxes\, isotopic or other approaches to tracing contamination\, modelling\, experimental incubations with contaminants\, mesocosm studies and toxicity assessments. We particularly encourage contributions regarding the quantification of sources and fluxes of contaminants to the marine environment\, and the effects of this contamination (toxicity from chemical contaminants such as heavy metals or PCBs\, effects of plastic ingestion on zooplankton…). \n\n\n\n*BG1.5 Mercury cycling in the environment – sources\, processes\, impacts\, and archives from local to global scalesan G. Wiederhold\, Sofi Jonsson\, Martin Jiskra\, Sophia Hansson \n\n\n\nhttps://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/35204 \n\n\n\nMercury (Hg) is a toxic global pollutant of great environmental concern. The UNEP Minamata convention on mercury\, a legally-binding international treaty aiming to reduce negative impacts of Hg on the environment\, has entered into force in 2017. Anthropogenic activities have altered the global Hg cycle to a great extent and many ecosystems are threatened by exposure to elevated levels of Hg and its different species. For instance\, neurotoxic and bioaccumulating methyl-Hg is formed under the influence of anaerobic microorganisms in a variety of natural systems but the controls on this key process are still far from being understood. Further active Hg research areas include exchange processes at the atmosphere-soil-plant interface and their importance for understanding atmospheric Hg deposition\, the behavior and long-term fate of Hg at contaminated sites\, as well as global cycling models assessing the evolution of historic Hg fluxes from different natural and anthropogenic sources. In the past few years\, a number of novel research tools based on microbiological\, spectroscopic\, isotopic\, and modelling techniques have been developed to improve our understanding of Hg cycling in the environment. This session presents new contributions on present-day Hg cycling in the environment using field-based\, experimental\, and/or modelling approaches on local to global scales\, as well as contributions focusing on long- and short-term reconstruction of Hg as a pollutant over time using natural archives such as ice-cores\, tree-rings\, lake sediments and peat bogs. We particularly welcome research addressing the effects of the implementation of the Minamata convention on mercury levels in the environment and new approaches to assess its effectiveness. \n\n\n\n*BG4.5 The impact of anthropogenic sediment reworking on the seafloorSebastiaan van de Velde\, Pere Masqué and Sarah Paradis \n\n\n\nhttps://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/35228 \n\n\n\nThe human imprint on the marine realm has rapidly increased during the last century\, leaving no area unaffected by human activities. Bottom trawl fishing intensity has boomed since the 1950s\, while at the same time dredging activities in coastal zones have intensified to maintain navigable waterways\, reclaim land\, construct wind farms or counteract coastal erosion. Off-shore drilling platforms have been constructed around the world\, and more recently\, deep-sea mining has become an attractive avenue for mineral extraction. All of these economic activities physically perturb the seabed\, and are expected to have a strong effect on the natural biological\, geochemical and physical dynamics of the ocean. However\, very little is understood about the short-term and long-term impact of these anthropogenic physical disturbances. \n\n\n\nThis session aims to create a multidisciplinary discussion on the impact and potential remediation of diverse anthropogenic alterations on the seafloor\, and invites contributions ranging from marine ecology over physical oceanography and biogeochemistry\, be it observational\, theoretical or experimental. \n\n\n\n*CL5.4 Challenges and opportunities arising from palaeo-data compilationsNikita Kaushal\, Laia Comas-Bru\, Franziska Lechleitner and Sophie Warken \n\n\n\nhttps://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/36725 \n\n\n\nThe number of past climatic and/or ecological data generated from a range of distinct proxies and natural archives is continuously growing. Hence\, significant advances in palaeoclimate research can now be made using large-scale compilations. Establishing such large-scale databases reveal supra-regional and global spatial and temporal patterns in palaeoclimate conditions that are not possible with single records. This session aims at presenting current advances in palaeoclimate and palaeoecology based on local- to global-scale syntheses. Bringing together palaeoclimate databases with observational and/or climate modelling outputs is crucial for improving our understanding of past climate conditions\, to identify signal and noise components and their temporal dynamics\, and to gain insight into the quality of data-model comparisons. We therefore aim at bridging the gap between data generation\, earth system modeling and data assimilation studies. We encourage submissions on data compilations\, cross-comparison and modelling studies utilizing data repositories and databases (e.g.\, NEOTOMA\, SISAL\, PAGES2k\, ACER\, EPD).

Since this GRC conference began 50 years ago\, great progress has been achieved in the fundamental understanding of the chemistry of the oceans. Yet there is a great deal to be learned about how the chemical species and their inventories in the oceans interact with physical\, geological\, biological\, biochemical\, and chemical processes. Moreover\, there are now a myriad of anthropogenic influences that are also likely changing marine geochemical and biogeochemical cycles. \nThis conference will highlight the leading edge of research in chemical oceanography with a focus on elucidating key processes and discovering mechanisms relevant to understanding large scale biogeochemical cycles in the oceans. Topics will explore key chemical reactions that influence biogeochemical processes\, examine reaction rates and what controls them\, applications of biochemical approaches\, large scale observations\, modeling and synthesis\, deep-time changes in ocean chemistry\, fluxes across interfaces\, and developments in instrumentation. This conference aims to connect researchers united by a common interest in improving our understanding of the changing chemistry of the oceans\, and to catalyze future research in understanding the biogeochemical cycles of marine environments. \nThe 2019 GRC will be preceded by a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) in Chemical Oceanography that is open to graduate students and postdocs in Chemical Oceanography and related fields. The GRS provides a forum for early career researchers to present research results\, promote networking\, and to conduct career building discussions within a peer-to-peer setting. The GRS is chaired by two graduate students and will include an invited keynote speaker. \nDeadlines: \n\nApplications for the GRC meeting must be submitted by June 16\, 2019.\nApplications for GRS must be submitted by June 15\, 2019\n\nFor further information Gordon Research Seminar (GRS): https://www.grc.org/chemical-oceanography-grs-conference/2019/\nFor further information Gordon Research Conference (GRC): https://www.grc.org/chemical-oceanography-conference/2019/ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2019-gordon-research-conference-on-chemical-oceanography/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190407 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190413 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20190121T145041Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221115T103330Z UID:2106-1554595200-1555113599@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:EGU2019\, European Geosciences Union General Assembly DESCRIPTION:European Geosciences Union General Assembly 20189(EGU2019) Dates: 7-12 April 2019 Location: Vienna\, Austria For further information:https://www.egu2019.eu/   URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/egu2019-european-geosciences-union-general-assembly/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181114 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181117 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20180716T135122Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180716T135122Z UID:2090-1542153600-1542412799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:SCOR-InterRidge Meeting DESCRIPTION:SCOR-InterRidge Meeting on “Mid-Ocean Ridges and Other Geological Features of the Indian Ocean”Dates: 14-16 November 2018Location: Goa (India) \n\nRegistration for SCOR-InterRidge Meeting on “Mid-Ocean Ridges and Other Geological Features of the Indian Ocean”\, organized on 14-16 November 2018 in Goa (India)\, is now open.

The Community White Papers should promote international collaboration and large-scale sustained ocean observing efforts\, and address one or ideally more of the seven (anticipated) themes (Discovery\, Ecosystem Health & Biodiversity\, Climate Variability & Change\, Water\, Food\, & Energy Security\, Pollution & Human Health\, Hazards & Maritime Safety\, and Blue Economy) and two crosscutting themes on data information system and ocean observing governance topics. \nBased on the contributed abstracts of Community White Papers\, the OceanObs’19 Program Committee will solicit full Community White Papers to be submitted by end of September 2018. The Program Committee may recommend that authors of particular abstracts collaborate and merge the concepts described in separate abstracts to develop a joint Community White Paper. The papers will be peer-reviewed and published in an open access journal before the conference.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe seek abstract contributions that provide solutions to build and enhance connections between end users and ocean observations in relation to one or more of the conference themes.  Additionally\, abstracts should focus on (one or more of the following):  \n\nStrategies to address social and economic needs including the development of the Blue Economy;\nEmerging science concepts that require multidisciplinary sustained observations (i.e. biological\, biogeochemical\, physical\, geological\, social and economic\, etc.);\nThe value of existing ocean observations and their potential relevance in an evolving ocean observing system;\nThe requirements for sustaining and enhancing ocean observing capabilities;\nThe development of new observing technologies and networks\, including identification of new transformative directions for ocean observing;\nAdvances in open data\, information technology\, and governance systems;\nObservational or observation-model synthesis;\nThe need for improved processes to better support research and operations;\nInnovations in engagement with end-user communities.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCONFERENCE INFORMATION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe main goal of the conference will be to further develop effective strategies for a sustained\, multidisciplinary and integrated ocean observing system\, and to better connect user communities and observers. End user communities include operational users\, national and local authorities as well as researchers\, from the public and private sectors.  Engagement with international user communities can take diverse forms\, including closer interaction to better target their needs for ocean observing networks and derived products while better informing management decisions. OceanObs’19 will continue the tradition of building the vision of ocean users and observers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBACKGROUND:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs part of the decadal conference series\, OceanObs’19 will galvanize the ocean observing community ranging from scientists to end users. OceanObs’19 seeks to improve response to scientific and societal needs of a fit-for-purpose integrated ocean observing system\, for better understanding the environment of the Earth\, monitoring climate\, and informing adaptation strategies as well as the sustainable use of ocean resources.   OceanObs’99 resulted in an internationally coordinated system for physical climate and ocean carbon observations. OceanObs’09 expanded the range of communities working together to undertake more comprehensive ocean observations and led to the Framework for Ocean Observing. OceanObs’19 will seek to advance these outcomes by extending its reach the full spectrum of ocean communities.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpected Schedule\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDec 18\, 2018: Release of call for abstracts of Community White Papers March 15\, 2018: Due date for abstract submission March 15 – April 30\, 2018: Program Committee reviews and consolidates Community White Paper list April 30\, 2018: Invitations to group authors for Community White Papers September 30\, 2018: Community White Papers due\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor any additional information\, please reach out to info@oceanobs19.net or check out www.oceanobs19.net for up-to-date info!  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/an-ocean-of-opportunity/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180708 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180714 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20180115T145622Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180115T145622Z UID:2074-1531008000-1531526399@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:2018 Gordon Research Conference on Biogeochemistry DESCRIPTION:2018 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on BiogeochemistryDates: 8-13 July 2018Location: Hong-Kong\, China \nThe next Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Ocean Biogeochemistry will be held in Hong Kong in July 2018.

Themes highlighting the fundamentally interdisciplinary nature of the field have remained at the heart of the GRC in Chemical Oceanography for almost 50 years. The meeting in 2017 will advance these themes and highlight synthesis of multifaceted data in Chemical Oceanography. Highlights will include new methods of data collection\, visualization\, analysis\, and modeling that allow novel insights and connections to be made in all phases of interdisciplinary work. Synthesizing data on multiple elements\, with different chemical behaviors and controls allows us to understand key processes that the control the distributions of elements in seawater and marine sediments\, as well as to understand how shifts in those distributions may reflect changes at the processes level. New advances in integration of a wide array of measurements on a variety of space and time scales allow scaling from detailed regional studies to global processes in the past\, present\, and future ocean and create an integrative understanding of Chemical Oceanography whose whole is greater than the sum of its parts. \nThe biennial GRC in Chemical Oceanography seeks to spur discussion and synthesis of ideas at the leading edge of research within Chemical Oceanography\, with an emphasis on presentation of new\, unpublished data\, interpretations\, and ideas in a strictly ‘off the record’ format. All attendees are encouraged to present a poster on their work. \nNew this year\, we will offer a ‘Power Hour’ on Monday afternoon. This is an opportunity for attendees to get together in an informal setting to discuss the challenges facing women in science\, and to address those challenges through mentoring and open discussion. This discussion is open to all attendees. We are looking for volunteers to help moderate the discussion. If you are interested\, please contact the GRC Chair (kcasciotti@stanford.edu). \nPlease note that the GRC offers partial support for faculty from predominantly undergraduate institutions (PUI)\, researchers from developing nations (through the Carl Storm International Diversity Fellowship)\, and underrepresented minority participants who are US citizens or permanent residents and are attending a GRC or GRS for the first time through the Carl Storm Underrepresented Minority Fellowship Program. We encourage applicants who are eligible to contact the GRC Chair (kcasciotti@stanford.edu) for more information. \n2017 GORDON RESEARCH SEMINAR (GRS) ON CHEMICAL OCEANOGRAPHY \nHow Chemistry Gives Insight into Ocean Processes \nJuly 22-23\, 2017\, Colby-Sawyer College\, New London\, NH \nChairs: Claire Till and Hilary Palevsky \nThe Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Chemical Oceanography\, held in the two days immediately preceding the GRC\, is a unique forum for graduate students\, postdocs\, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting-edge ideas. The GRS aims to allow these early career scientists to present and discuss their research with their peers in a GRC-type atmosphere\, in the absence of the more senior cadre. The focus of this meeting is chemical tracers providing insight into oceanic processes. Tracers are widely used in both observational and experimental oceanography for exploring many types of processes; we hope that all scientists in chemical oceanography will be able to find this theme applicable to their work. In addition to oral and poster presentations by the early-career participants\, the GRS co-chairs have also invited a small panel of speakers to discuss career track and professional development topics pertinent to junior members of the field. Coupling the GRS with the GRC will greatly amplify the educational and professional experience of the students/postdocs\, and will likely improve their ability to communicate their research at the subsequent GRC. \nThe program for the GRS in Chemical Oceanography will be developed by inviting speakers and discussion leaders from abstracts submitted by April 22\, so we encourage all graduate students and postdocs planning to attend the GRS to submit an application by this deadline. Some funding will be available for graduate students and postdocs attending both the GRS and GRC. If the meeting cost is a barrier to your attendance\, please contact the chairs to request additional need-based support. \nChild and Family Care Resources: The Gordon Research Conferences (GRC) provides detailed information for each conference site on the GRC website. Although GRC does not directly provide child care services\, attendees are welcome to have guests (including spouses\, children\, nannies and babysitters) accompany them to the conference. GRC also offers an alternative off-site registration fee at all conferences to accommodate those with special family care needs (the off-site fee includes the conference and all meals but enables attendees to book their own accommodations). The GRC website includes information on nearby off-site accommodations and links to area organizations\, that can assist attendees with locating licensed child care providers and daycare services. Please note that Colby Sawyer College also offers a daily recreational camp for children (ages 6-12). \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2017-gordon-research-conference-on-chemical-oceanography/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170619 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170622 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20170203T085303Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170203T085303Z UID:2047-1497830400-1498089599@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:ATMOCHEMBIO International Conference DESCRIPTION:Atmospheric Chemical and Biological Processes: Interactions and Impacts (ATMOCHEMBIO)Dates: 19-21 June 2017Location: Clermont-Ferrand\, France \nFor further information: https://atmochembio.sciencesconf.org/ \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/atmochembio-international-conference/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170522 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170528 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20160519T075320Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160519T075320Z UID:2020-1495411200-1495929599@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:International Conference on High Latitude Dust DESCRIPTION:International Conference on High Latitude DustDates: 22-25 May 2017Location: Reykjavik\, Iceland \nFor further information: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1sevoO5ZcWVArHP6vvZ6aNn4P45VFB1hbYJnR4tByBQU/viewform?c=0&w=1 \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/international-conference-on-high-latitude-dust/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170521 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170527 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20160519T065133Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160519T065133Z UID:2018-1495324800-1495843199@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:14th International Symposium on the Interactions between Sediments and Water DESCRIPTION:14th International Symposium on the Interactions between Sediments and WaterDates: 21-26 May 2017Location: Taormina\, Italy \nFor further information: http://www.iasws2017.altervista.org \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/14th-international-symposium-on-the-interactions-between-sediments-and-water/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170118 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170120 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20160602T090419Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160602T090419Z UID:2024-1484697600-1484870399@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:Workshop on Environmental Concentrations\, Cycling & Modelling of Technology Critical Elements DESCRIPTION:Workshop on Environmental Concentrations\, Cycling & Modelling of Technology Critical ElementsDates: 18 – 19 January 2017 Location: Weizmann Institute of Science\, Rehovot\, Israel. \nThis is an initiative of NOTICE – COST Action TD 1407 (http://www.costnotice.net/). \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/workshop-on-environmental-concentrations-cycling-modelling-of-technology-critical-elements/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161212 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161217 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20140416T094518Z LAST-MODIFIED:20140416T094518Z UID:1901-1481500800-1481932799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:American Geophysical Union Fall 2016 Meeting DESCRIPTION:American Geophysical Union Fall 2016 MeetingDates: 12-16 December 2016Location:  San Francisco\, California\, USA \nFor further information: http://meetings.agu.org URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/american-geophysical-union-fall-2016-meeting/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161118 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161120 DTSTAMP:20260501T203546 CREATED:20160519T073130Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160519T073130Z UID:2019-1479427200-1479599999@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:14th Swiss Geoscience Meeting DESCRIPTION:14th Swiss Geoscience Meeting Dates: 18 – 19 November 2016 Location: Geneva\, Switzerland \nFind further information below or visit the following website: http://www.geoscience-meeting.ch/sgm2016 \n  \nOn Friday 18th\, \nKeynote presentations will focus on this year’s theme “Time in Geosciences: Knowledge for a new beginning”.
