Overview

The third annual US Ice Core Community Meeting (IceCOMM)
will be held May 15-17, 2024, at the
Portland Public Library (Downtown Library on Monument Square) in beautiful
Portland, Maine
.
Abstract and early registration rate deadline is March 15.

This meeting is intended for anyone interested in ice core science or related fields, including ice-core analysis, ice or subglacial drilling, glacier geophysics that supports or depends on ice core records, paleoclimate, and contemporary climate and ice sheet change.

Goals of the meeting include 1) sharing the latest science, 2) discussing future ice core and related science projects in polar regions and alpine environments, 3) providing career development opportunities, and 4) improving communication about ice-core and related science both within and beyond the scientific community. We hope to attract a diverse group of participants, including those who may not have extensive experience working with ice cores.

While this meeting is primarily oriented at researchers in the US, international colleagues are welcome to attend.

The meeting will begin midday on Wednesday, May 15, and end in the late afternoon of Friday, May 17. The meeting will be preceded by an

ICECReW pre-meeting workshop

for early career researchers focused on applying for both academic and alt/ac jobs.

There is an room block at the

Hyatt Place Portland Maine

The room rate is $133 plus tax and includes breakfast. The rate is valid for 2 days before and 2 days after the meeting dates.

Requests for early career travel support are being handled through the
