Description

We are pleased to announce the glaciological Conference “Ice and Climate Change: A View from the South” (VICC 2010) will be held in Valdivia, Chile, 1-3 February 2010. The objective of the Conference is to present new results and discuss ongoing cryospheric and climate changes in the Southern Hemisphere and their impacts and consequences on society and the environment. Although the main focus will be glaciology and climatology, we hope to foster interdisciplinary discourse about climate change through the contribution of other disciplines in earth sciences and social sciences.

The Conference has scientific sponsorship from the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) and the Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) Project of WCRP-IASC-SCAR.  As a complement to the science, we will be organising a social programme to allow attendees to enjoy the beautiful summer landscape around Valdivia.
