The 2nd circular for the INSTANT (INStabilities & Thresholds in ANTarctica) Conference 2023 has been released.
The INSTANT Conference 2023 will take place on September 11-14, in Trieste (Italy).
The priority focus of the conference will be on improving knowledge of the key rate-determining processes, instabilities and potential irreversibilities that affect the mass change of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and its contribution to past, present and future global sea-level. We invite leading and emerging experts, as well as early-career researchers (ECRs), from modellers to observationalists, to present and discuss the state of the science and critical knowledge gaps. We also invite perspectives from the stakeholder and practitioner communities, and will discuss best practices in communication and engagement.
The Conference format will be morning plenaries and afternoon workshops, pre- and post-conference excursions and activities, and pre- and post-conference side meetings.
Registration and Abstract submission are now open. The deadline for submission is April 3.
Application for travel grants for ECRs will open soon.
We strongly advise you to book your accommodation as soon as possible as September is tourist season in Trieste.
Full details are on the Conference website.
We hope to see you in Trieste!
