HydroMet Team - The 1st Climate and Water Forum at HKUST

8:30am - 10:00am

 

We would like to invite you, your colleagues and students to attend the 1st Climate and Water Forum (CWF) hosted by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). It is a one-month long online forum every Friday and Saturday from May 7 to May 29, 2021 (program details attached). 

 

The CWF aims to facilitate an annual dialogue among scientists, engineers, students, public and private enterprise and government entities to address emerging threats from the changing climate and environment, the depleting availability of clean water, the urge to identify renewable energy to replace fossil fuel, to reduce uncertainty and anxiety for the next generation that will inherit the world.

 

This year’s CWF consists of three clusters of topics in the intersections of meteorology, hydrology, climate science and water resource management.

 

  1. Challenges and opportunities
  2. Technical advances – data, tools, technology
  3. New understandings and exciting results

 

In each of the clusters we have invited leading researchers to give a 45-min talk on a relevant topic followed by a 30-min Q&A session, where we wish more ideas to be exchanged among scientists, engineers, students, policymakers, government and private parties.

 

Please feel free to share this with your colleagues and students. Your support to the CWF’s debut will fortify an in-time conversation and deeper collaborations among different stakeholders to vision and prepare for future challenges in water resources under climate change.
